About this build
Xeinaemm's note: Equivalent to one full belt of ore, but more UPS-friendly, as it removes 6 inserters from the production chain.
An array of big mining drills, from Xeinaemm's Tileable Factories book. The rate is Xeinaemm's minimum with legendary machines and full productivity research, so expect less early on.
Before you place it
- Clear a space of at least 12 × 11 tiles.
- You need the Space Age expansion (Turbo underground belt, Foundry, Big mining drill).
- It places legendary quality items: your logistic network must hold them at that quality before robots can build it.
- It has 1 crafting machines and 6 beacons, so connect enough power before you switch it on.
- It uses circuit logic. Do not remove wires or combinators when you adapt it.
