Using this reference
Choose a recipe for Miners and raw fluids, 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.
Nitrogen Gas
120 per minute · Buildings needed (rounded up): 1
| Source data | Batches | per minute |
|---|---|---|
| − Reanimated SAM | 1 | 10 |
| − Bauxite | 10 | 100 |
| + Nitrogen Gas | 12 m³ | 120 |
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
Nitrogen Gas (Bauxite) · 6 Seconds
Reanimated SAM × 1 + Bauxite × 10 → Nitrogen Gas × 12
Station: Converter
Nitrogen Gas (Caterium) · 6 Seconds
Reanimated SAM × 1 + Caterium Ore × 12 → Nitrogen Gas × 12
Station: Converter
Unpackage Nitrogen Gas · 1 Seconds
Packaged Nitrogen Gas × 1 → Nitrogen Gas × 4 + Empty Fluid Tank × 1
Station: Packager
A worked example
Suppose you want 37 × Nitrogen Gas. This recipe produces 12 per operation, so you need 4 operations. That produces 48 in total, leaving 11 extra. The direct material list is Reanimated SAM × 4 and Bauxite × 40.

| − Alumina Solution | 4 m³ | 240 |
| − Coal | 2 | 120 |
| + Aluminum Scrap | 6 | 360 |
| + Water | 2 m³ | 120 |
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

Dissolved Silica × 12 + Limestone × 5 + Water × 10 → Silica × 27 + Water × 8
Station: Blender
A worked example
Suppose you want 7 × Water. This recipe produces 2 per operation, so you need 4 operations. That produces 8 in total, leaving 1 extra. The direct material list is Alumina Solution × 16 and Coal × 8.

Portable Miner
1 per minute · Buildings needed (rounded up): 60
| Source data | Batches | per minute |
|---|---|---|
| − Steel Pipe | 4 | 4 |
| − Iron Plate | 4 | 4 |
| + Portable Miner | 1 | 1 |
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
Alternate: Automated Miner · 60 Seconds
Steel Pipe × 4 + Iron Plate × 4 → Portable Miner × 1
Station: Assembler
A worked example
Suppose you want 4 × Portable Miner. This recipe produces 1 per operation, so you need 4 operations. That produces 4 in total. The direct material list is Steel Pipe × 16 and Iron Plate × 16.
