Factory Tech Machine Maintenance

Introduction
Factory Tech machines require no power. Instead, they rely on regular maintenance. Consumable parts such as saw blades and motors will wear out and become dull, thus requiring replacement. Some parts are available in different qualities with higher quality items lasting longer. Machine GUIs will indicate the replacement parts required.



Usage
Each Factory Tech machine accept new parts from one side only. This is specified in the machine's Blueprint but is usually the Back face. This can be overridden by Shift-right-clicking with a Monkey Wrench. An Insertion Hatch must be placed against the input face, then new parts may be delivered with Transport Rollers as pictured. Machines will hold up to a full stack of consumable parts.
