Beaconed green circuits: about 149 per second (Vulcanus)

Beaconed green circuits: about 149 per second (Vulcanus) is a blueprint with 404 entities in a 29×40 tile area, mainly 20 × assembling machine 3. Its author gives 149 per second (about 2.5 turbo belts, or one turbo belt stacked 4 high). It needs Space Age. Copy the string and import it from the blueprint library.

About this build

A beaconed electronic circuit block making about 149 green circuits per second, fed by beaconed copper wire and iron plates. It has 404 buildings in a 29 by 40 tile area. It is part of Tumi's Vulcanus 120 SPM book.

Tumi's notes: 148.8 Green Circuits per second. Requires 2 beaconed wire bps and 2 beaconed plate bps. Plates fed at top, wire fed on blue belts on the sides.

Before you place it

  • Clear a space of at least 29 × 40 tiles.
  • You need the Space Age expansion (Turbo underground belt, Turbo transport belt, Turbo splitter).
  • It has 20 crafting machines and 13 beacons, so connect enough power before you switch it on.
  • It is large: construction robots will place it much faster than building by hand.
  • It uses circuit logic. Do not remove wires or combinators when you adapt it.
