A separator plate having a receptacle for a drive shaft that defines an axis of rotation. Such plate, which includes a first annular region radially adjacent to the receptacle, a second annular region radially adjacent to the first annular region, and a third annular region radially adjacent to the second annular region, can be produced particularly easily if the second annular region has a plurality of spokes connecting the first and the third annular regions to one another and if there are flow channels extending in the axial direction between the spokes.
