[[File:PI extractor heads.png|right|200px|Extractor Heads]] Extraction of resources is done by extractor heads that are installable via the Extractor Control Units (ECU). The heads can be placed within the ECUs area and can be moved via drag and drop. The links between the heads and the ECUs do not add power or CPU but every added head (up to a maximum of 10) needs an amount of power (550) and CPU (110).

The main idea for extractor heads is to move them around to resource hot-spots for a greater extraction amount. By placing the ECU in a way that the ECUs area is surrounding several hot spots the extractor heads can be placed on different hot-spots every time a ~~programm~~ is installed. ~~Usen~~ this method the depletion of the ~~ressource~~ is ~~bananced~~ between the hot-spots.

By placing the ECU in a way that the ECUs area is surrounding several hot spots the extractor heads can be placed on different hot-spots every time a program is installed. Using this method the depletion of the resource is balanced between the hot-spots.

The area of effect of one extractor head is dependent on the length of the installed program. Longer ~~programms~~ mean a wider area of effect for the extractor heads. When the areas are overlapping a penalty of extraction amount is displayed as red numbers in the ECU window.
