The version and limits of the original source apply to every entry. Quantities and requirements belong to the named variant; do not add alternative recipes or opening lines together.

These options share a planning task. Their differences stay visible in the individual rows and calculators.

Using this reference

Choose a recipe for Splitter tiers, then choose the machine that will run it. The per-minute rate uses the recorded output, recipe duration and machine speed. Batch quantities answer how many materials a fixed number of operations consumes; the rate column answers how fast one selected machine processes them.

Increase the target rate to see the number of whole machines needed. Rounding up leaves some nominal spare capacity. This is a direct production step, not a balanced factory: upstream supply, transport and temporary interruptions still need to support the stated rate.

Rates use the selected building at base speed. No modules, beacons, quality, power shortages or overclocking are simulated. Fractional outputs are expected averages, not guaranteed drops.

per minute = Batches × 60 × Production building / seconds per cycle

Splitter · 1 Seconds

Electronic circuit × 5 + Iron plate × 5 + Transport belt × 4 → Splitter × 1

Station: Assembling machine 1 / Assembling machine 2 / Assembling machine 3

A worked example

Suppose you want 4 × Splitter. This recipe produces 1 per operation, so you need 4 operations. That produces 4 in total. The direct material list is Electronic circuit × 20, Iron plate × 20, and Transport belt × 16.
