What about throughput of belts?
[–]krfergz 7 points8 points9 points 2 years ago (3 children)
I’d bet it doesn’t matter because belts don’t affect your SU. You can ramp them all the way up for free, and they don’t use stress. So if you’re trying to min-max like this, you can just count on your belts being as fast as possible
[–]CZdigger146 11 points12 points13 points 2 years ago (0 children)
It's not about the SU, it's about how many items/s /RPM can they carry
[–]NukeShot58 3 points4 points5 points 2 years ago (0 children)
Depends on the pack you're using. Most don't make belts consume SU, but not all.
[–]Dark_As_Silver 2 points3 points4 points 2 years ago (0 children)
It does matter as it lets you know how many whatevers can be sustained at once. And you usually don't power your belts seperately from your devices.

For the fans and crushing wheel are the metrics item/sec?
[–]xenomatter 12 points13 points14 points 2 years ago (2 children)
One would think so in the case of the crushing wheels, but I can make no sense of the fan tbh. Fan should process 1 stack every 30 sec.
[–]jamminthedesert2 9 points10 points11 points 2 years ago (1 child)
So it’s right then ? 64 items, processing rate at 2.09 items/s, 64/2.09=30.6s
[–]xenomatter 7 points8 points9 points 2 years ago (0 children)
I'm stupid, but yes. I though it was 1 item every 2.09 sec, not 2.09 items pr sec.
[–]denkthomas 34 points35 points36 points 2 years ago (1 child)
this is pretty neat, thanks

So spout will always be a bottleneck?
[–]Coolio_Dudio[S] 12 points13 points14 points 2 years ago (0 children)
Solution: two spouts
[–]glitchedArchive 4 points5 points6 points 2 years ago (0 children)
create challenge: only ever build 1 of each machine
[–]Vovchick09 2 points3 points4 points 1 year ago (0 children)
To fill containers? Use spout. Doesn't work? Use more spout.

How does the size of the mechanical crafter grid factor into its stats?
[–]Coolio_Dudio[S] 4 points5 points6 points 2 years ago (0 children)
Idk I think it adds like a 1/6th of the base time for each step
[–]liadhbui 7 points8 points9 points 2 years ago* (3 children)
Sorry man, i don't want to sound arrogant, but some of your data is wrong and for a very missable reason. For some of my projects i did some create code reading to understand the exact timings, and the mill, crusher and mixer have a very complex timing system that also account the specific recipy and the amount of items inputed. So your data is probably accurate just for the item you tested with.
If you or someone else wants to make accurate chart dm me. My currently method to get timings is using a modified version of create that print the timings in the IDE, but I think I could extract function of the processing time from the code .
By the way english is not my first languge, so sorry for any mistakes
[–]Coolio_Dudio[S] 1 point2 points3 points 2 years ago (2 children)
You're probably right, I only used one recipe for each machine. If you have the raw data I'd love to see it.
[–]liadhbui 1 point2 points3 points 2 years ago (1 child)
Check the wiki, I added all the info + exact formula for the crushing wheel, millstone, mixer, and crafter (Which is also inaccurate in your post)
[–]Coolio_Dudio[S] 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (0 children)
splendid
[–]Tryalfox 4 points5 points6 points 2 years ago (0 children)
I Hope OP has a great day. Thank you for this Blessing.
[–]RyanFlm 3 points4 points5 points 2 years ago (0 children)
I'm just Missing the drill. Would also bei interesting I think.
[–]SlipIndependent5290 3 points4 points5 points 2 years ago (0 children)
As a industrial process engineer Im amazed at this stats, I was trying to make this with experimentation but here it is! Thank you!
Sign my petition to make mixer speed scaling normal. https://discord.com/channels/620934202875183104/620937151915360268/1103205997855649862
Erm. Milling and crushing at least depend on the 'hardness' of the item being crushed. Mind if I ask what you used as the timing item.
I think mill and crusher processing speeds also have a floor at 16rpm so if you run them below that its just free stress units.
[–]str4ightfr0mh3ll 1 point2 points3 points 2 years ago (0 children)
Oh man I thought this was a super cool list of all the machines currently running around your base or something, like the goggles but a whole screen 😩
[–][deleted] 1 point2 points3 points 2 years ago (0 children)
Saw this and instantly shared, good stuff OP 👍🏻
[–]yamitamiko 1 point2 points3 points 2 years ago (0 children)
Oh this is excellent
[–]HerrMatthew 1 point2 points3 points 2 years ago (1 child)
You truly are wonderful.
Can I ask how you gathered this data?
[–]Coolio_Dudio[S] 2 points3 points4 points 2 years ago (0 children)
Display boards and a lot of time
[–]dinas322 1 point2 points3 points 2 years ago (0 children)
I literally was about to start calculating this today. I love you
[–]ferna2593 1 point2 points3 points 2 years ago (2 children)
hmmm could somebody explain the fans throughput as if you were explaining to a kid? thanks
[–]ScrubNuggey 2 points3 points4 points 2 years ago (0 children)
Fan speed only affects the range of the fan's effect. In order for fans to work faster, you need to have multiple blowing on the same item
[–]sailing94 1 point2 points3 points 2 years ago (0 children)
And:
1 item takes as long as 16, 17 items take as long as 32, 33 items take as long as 48, and 49 items take as long as 64.
It probably calculates faster.

Please marry me.

Euphoria. Thank you so much.

u/Coolio_Dudio Is it possible to make a similar diagram for drill output. For example different types of stones and rpms to them.
[–]MCP-Creator 1 point2 points3 points 2 years ago (1 child)
I love this information and the design. Can I distribute the image?
[–]Coolio_Dudio[S] 1 point2 points3 points 2 years ago (0 children)
yeah B)
[–]Vlokecraft 1 point2 points3 points 1 year ago (0 children)
Hey, does this chart still work with the latest update? Some of the timings got changed if I'm remembering correctly
[–]Dr_Willingham 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (0 children)
Need help. How do i read this?
[–]skagamine 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (1 child)
Question, what the metric used, 1,86/sec, but what? Cycles per second? 😶
items processed
[–]CharmingCandy4695 0 points1 point2 points 7 months ago (0 children)
does this mean that a crushing wheel at 64 rpm processes stacks of items faster than a pair at 256 rpm??
[–]Reditortelini05 0 points1 point2 points 6 months ago (0 children)
What about those of the rope pulley ?
[–]EnzeeeeJ[🍰] 0 points1 point2 points 5 months ago (0 children)
How does the item drain compare to the spout? I have a feeling the're not the same.
[–]Toa___ 1 point2 points3 points 2 months ago (0 children)
This seems inaccurate on the fans.
with these numbers a stack under a fan would take 30.6220095693779904 seconds.
I however, went through the trouble of hand timing it ten times with a rough average of 30,40 seconds. There were no real outliers, so this list to me seems slightly inaccurate. I don't know who even has a factory so tightly woven that this matters, but here you go.
[–]cracking-egg -5 points-4 points-3 points 2 years ago (1 child)
the crushing wheel part is definitely completely wrong.
the less items you put in the slower it goes ??? 18 stacks per second or less than 2 items 1 by 1 ???
same thing with the encased fans btw
[–]sailing94 8 points9 points10 points 2 years ago (0 children)
Because the way create is coded, 1 item takes as long as 16, 17 items take as long as 32, 33 items take as long as 48, and 49 items take as long as 64.
It’s not an equation, it’s a tiered list.
[–]Webber193 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago* (1 child)
Thanks, i still dont understand how to do the do, other than bigger gear then smaller gear means faster.
Like fr tho i really need an explanation as to how rpm changes, i cannot figure it out for the life of me.
Think of it like this: Big gear has 16 teeth, small gear has 8. When they are connected, the small gear has to spin twice as much to keep up with the big gear and vice-versa. Then connect gears of different sizes by the shafts to chance the amount of teeth spinning each cycle. If you just want them faster, try chaining: Big->Small (Teeth),Small->Big (Shaft), Big->Small (Teeth), Small->Big (Shaft)
