Auto Crafting Bench

The Auto Crafting Bench is a machine added by Project Red and can be used in conjunction with a Routed Interface pipe and Item Crafting chip for automatic crafting.

If the mod MineChem is installed, the Auto Crafting Bench can be decomposed with the Chemical Decomposer into chemical compounds from MineChem.

Usage


The Auto Crafting requires Electrotine Power to operate which can be supplied with Low Load Power Lines.

A right-click on the bench opens the GUI (shown in picture 1). The energy supply is displayed on the left side and at the bottom is its internal inventory. On the right is where custom build Recipe Plans can be placed.

The Auto Crafting Bench will not pass on or receive items from a Hopper if a constant Redstone signal is applied, though it will craft if power is supplied.

On picture 2 is an Auto Crafting Bench connected to a pipe system of Project Red.
 * On the right is a Chest connected to a Routed Interface pipe, with includes an Item Responder chip and an Item Broadcaster chip. Materials for crafting are placed here.
 * On the left is a Routed Request pipe connected with a chest where the requested items are placed.
 * In the middle is an Auto Crafting Bench connected to an Routed Interface pipe, with includes an Item Crafting chip.

To auto produce, for example, Sticks, create a Recipe Plan for sticks and place it in the Auto Crafting Bench.

Program an Item Crafting chip with the same recipe for Sticks and place it in the Item Interface pipe next to the Auto Crafting Bench. Finally, the resources needed for the recipe must be included in the right chest (storage). With this setup the player can request Sticks on the Routed Request pipe, which are automatically produced and placed in the chest next to the Routed Request pipe.
