About this build
48 steel furnaces fed by one red (fast) belt: the furnace count matches the belt's full throughput, so one ore patch on a red belt fills the whole column. Fuel and ore share the input belt.
Use it when you have red belts but no electric furnaces yet. Built in Factorio 1.1 by its author; 2.0 converts it when you import it, so check it once after placing.
Before you place it
- Clear a space of at least 51 × 12 tiles.
- It works in the base game without Space Age.
- It has 48 crafting machines, so connect enough power before you switch it on.
- It is large: construction robots will place it much faster than building by hand.
- It was made in Factorio 1.1; the game converts it when you import it, so check it once after placing.
