The output of the shaft junction will be either 512 Nm at 128/s or 4 Nm at 16,384/s depending on the redstone signal and can directly power all four stages of an extractor (it will process stages 1 and 4 in parallel while waiting for 2 and 3 until the redstone signal switches). Combined in a single machine you could use a gasoline engine, connect it to an omni-directional-clutch with alternating redstone signal and set to output to one of two different sides, place a single four-times gearbox set to torque mode on one branch and a four- and eight-times gearbox both set to speed on the other, and combine both branches with a bevel and shaft junction. The minimum power requirements would be 65,536 W (a single gasoline engine with a four-times gearbox) and 32,768 W (two steam engines with gearboxes). This can be achieved with an alternating redstone signal and a variable gearbox, the CVT or with (omni-directional-) clutches and different non-variable gearboxes. stages 1 and 4 get 512 Nm at >= 128 rad/s and stages 2 and 3 get 4 Nm at >= 8,192 rad/s.


That amount of power can be supplied with a couple of gears and two microturbines, higher tier magnetostatic engine(s), a jet engine or several lower tier engines combined with shaft junctions.Ī better approach for the beginning is to change the input power during ore processing so that e.g. To power all four stages in a single extractor without additional external input you therefore need a minimum of 512 Nm torque and 8,192 rad/s speed. If the extractor is not powered with enough torque or speed to process a later stage the ores or intermediate products will just sit in the machine until it is supplied with enough power (or a factorization router pulls them out of the different slots). For the four extractor stages the minimal and maximal (useful) values are:ġ) 512 Nm torque, 65,536 W, i.e. Most Rotar圜raft machines process tasks faster with more angular velocity than required as long as the minimal torque/power requirement is fulfilled.

The extractor needs power from below using a bevel gear, water for two of the intermediate stages and has different minimum power/torque/angular velocity requirements for its four stages. I don't know where you need help specifically, so i'll just summarize some of the important bits to set up an extractor. The Rotar圜raft handbook has a lot of the necessary information nowadays its recipe should be visible with NEI. Trying to set up a basic Rotarycraft assembly (extractor) and it's not really letting me.ANNOYING.
