Introduction
This design is to show and explain everything needed to setup a fully automated ingot - Alloy, Super Alloy creation. When the Setup has been completed, you will never need to tell the system to make ingots, just make sure the silos has enough ore in stock, and your gas supply is okay

Your vending machine will from here on always be ready to supply you with what you need, for your amazing builds.

Build up of the storage system.
In ordre for this setup to work, a total of 10 Kit (SDB Silo) must be build.

On the front site where the output is located a they are all connected in 1 joint chute pipe leading towards the Adv. Furnace.
Each silo must have a cable linked on both the power and data port, and it needs to be turned on.

Each silo must be named correctly to allow the IC code to read it.
Below is the order i named them in.
  1. Coal
  2. Copper
  3. Iron
  4. Nickel
  5. Silver
  6. Corbalt
  7. Gold
  8. Lead
  9. Silicon
  10. Steel

[Optional]
If you chose to add the OreStatus Chip then you will need to name the LED light and LED display correct, to allow it be controlled.

  1. Named according to which ore is inside, example here is Silicon
  2. Named same the silo it is in front of
  3. No need for a name, but is reading from a Hash Generator, which gives the correct HASH code, a Hash Display is required for the console to work.
  4. Named same the silo it is in front of

On the back side, all 10 silos are linked up on a feeding line, where there is a sorter to ensure the correct type of ore goes in each silo. after the sorter each silo has a stacker to ensure we have a stack of 50 only.

Build of the Advance Furnace and Pipe setup
The Advanced Furnace is to be build inside a framed room, 1 frame size is enough but more can also be used. i chose to use glass on each side and a solid steel frame as base.
Name the Furnace: A Furnace
2 Active vents mounted on the side and linked together with pipes, that are connected to the coolant part of the gas, they have to named Vent 1 and Vent 2.
There should also be mounted a Gas sensor within the en-closer to check the temperature and gas pressure.
On the pipe connecting point, the output is up to you what to connect to, either vent it out to space, or try and cool it and re-use the gas in your filtration system.
The input pipe will be connected up to the incoming pipe via 2 pumps.
The Coolant and the fuel gas joints together after the 2 pumps, and each pump and pump analyser rare controlled and needs to be named accordingly
  1. CoolantPump
  2. Coolant PA
  3. FuelPump
  4. Fuel PA
How i have the fuel mixer sat up, no naming is required for these.
This way the fuel mixer runs with the FuelPump,
  1. The Gas mixer is setup according to how you feed the oxygen and volatility.
    remember to adjust the ratio depending of which side you feed each gas type
  2. The Logic Reader has been adjusted this way. IN= FuelPump VAR= ON
  3. The Logic Writer has been adjusted this way. IN= Logic Reader VAR= ON Out = Fuel Mixer
Output from Furnace Setup
3 Vending Machine are used for storage of the created Ingots.
The name of these does not matter, but you must be able to locate them, this is what i am using.
  1. Vending Ingot
  2. Vending Alloy
  3. Vending SAlloy
Either a Chute Digital Valve Right or Left is used to ensure we can send the steel around to the silo storage, Name the chute "Steel". Just before this chute a "OverFlow" will be placed that is connected to the return line.
On the back side of the Vending Machine, first a Stacker sat to 50 followed by 3 Sorters
Remember to add the correct Ingots for each sorters, so that only Regular Ingot in the Vending Ingot
and Alloy and Super Alloy in the next 2.
Electrical Setup, IC10 Setion
This section is for all the control and IC10 Handling.
The Naming of all the IC10 and memory should done accordingly.
  1. MemAmount
  2. MemIngotType
  3. MemState
  4. MemStatus
  5. IC NormalOre
  6. IC Alloy
  7. IC CallForOre
  8. IC IngotChecker
  9. IC Alloy Vending
  10. IC Normal Vending
  11. Hash IC
  12. Furnace IC
  13. IC OreStatus

MemAmount
This Memory holds the amount of Ingot you wish to create.
MemIngotType
This Memory holds which type/number that is going to created.
See Ingot number section where all numbers are named.
MemState
This Memory holds which state the system is at,
1 means that we are ready for next step
2 or 3 determine if we are making calling for Normal ore or Special ore.
MemStatus
This Memory holds status for if we can make the chosen Ingot, 1 means that we have the ore needed. 2 means we don't have it and a reset will be made.
IC NormalOre
This IC calls for normal ore if MemState is 2, and then picks according to MemIngotType, and MemAamount.
IC Alloy
This IC calls for normal ore if MemState is 3, and then picks according to MemIngotType, and MemAamount.
IC CallForOre
This IC is scanning IC Normal Vending and IC Alloy Vending and if it catches a number from any of them it will then set the MemState, MemAmount and MemIngotType Accordingly if MemState is already 0, otherwise it will wait.
IC IngotChecker
When the MemIngotType has changed it will straightway check if we have enough or not for the chosen type, if it is okay MemStatus will be 1 and if it is not okay MemStatus will be 2.
IC Alloy Vending
Scanning the Alloy vending and the Super Alloy vending and if the selected amount required is too low it will send out the Ingot Number for the missing ingot, and continue the scan
  • D0 Must be set to the Alloy Vending Machine
  • D1Must be set to the Super Alloy Vending Machine
IC Normal Vending
Scanning the Normal Vending and if the selected amount required is too low it will send out the Ingot Number for the missing ingot, and continue the scan
  • D0 Must be set to the Normal Vending Machine
Hash IC and Furnace IC
Is Controlling the furnace
IC OreStatus (Optional)
This is to read the amount in each silo and control the LED and the LED display

  1. Console show HASH of current Ingot being made, it needs a HASH Display and set it to read from Hash IC
  2. Small LED display, Naming must be "Amount" and will show the current amount which are being created.
  1. Console with Gas Display inside, show current Pressure inside the "A Furnace". In Settings select A Furnace and Pressure
  2. Console with Gas Display inside, show current Temperature inside the "A Furnace". In Settings select A Furnace and Temperature
  3. Console with Gas Display inside, show current Pressure from the Pressure sensor. In Settings select the Pressure sensor and Pressure
  4. Console with Gas Display inside, show current Temperature from the Pressure sensor. In Settings select Pressure sensor and Temperature
  5. Lever named "VentLever" for venting the Furnace room.
  6. Lever named "Flush" for flushing the Furnace.
Code sections that you can adjust.
IC Alloy Vending
Line 66 here it is set to 100 so if you want more you can adjust it, but change line 65 similar, This is for when it will call for the specefic item

Line 80 here it is set to 50 so if you want more you can adjust it, but change line 79 similar, This is for when it will call for the specefic item

IC Normal Vending
Line 58 here it is set to 100 so if you want more you can adjust it, but change line 57 similar, This is for when it will call for the specefic item

IC IngotChecker
Line 62, 67, 72 has the number 2 inside, this is the current minimum limit in Ore, can be adjusted. but should not be lower as 2 is the max that can be needed of a ore type.

IC CallForOre
Line 8 and 12 here the number 3 and 1 indicates how many batches are created. could be sat higher.

ICOreStatus
Line 12 indicates when it becomes white and turned of, currently 10 stacks
Line 14 indicates when it is orange currently 3
