Arc Furnace
Not a reactor
The Arc Furnace is a massive structure used to quickly smelt metals. It consists of a steel vat topped by electrodes which heat up the metal.
The furnace excels at smelting ores and creating steel due to its high speed and its ability to process multiple items at the same time, but it is also complex in its workings and will require maintenance in order to continue functioning.
Slag must be removed from the machine or it will cease to function, and degrading electrodes need to be replaced over time.
To form the structure, assemble it as shown on the first page, then click the cauldron with an Engineer's Hammer.
Energy is input through the three connectors at the back, and supplying the control panel at the front with a redstone signal will turn off the machine. Right-clicking the panel, 'bucket' or vat will open the interface.<np>
The Arc Furnace is a massive machine used to quickly alloy metals and smelt ores. It consists of supports and a steel and firebrick vat topped by electrodes to heat the vat.<np>
Arc furnaces can smelt batches of many items at once, but are little faster than their <link;improved_blast_furnace;simpler sisters> at the cost of larger amounts of power. Thus, they excel at speed for big orders.<br>
As a consequence of the order of magnitude increase in speed from parallel smelting, the Arc Furnace is a complex machine that requires hand maintenance in the form of replacement of the electrodes. This maintenance cannot be performed automatically.<np>
Once the electrodes are used for approximately four continuous days of smelting, they become degraded enough that they break.<br>
To form the structure, assemble it as shown on the first page, then click the cauldron with an Engineer's Hammer.<br>
Energy is input through the three connectors at the back, and supplying the control panel at the front with a redstone signal will turn off the machine.<br>
Outputs are retrieved from the basin at the front of the structure, slag through the port at the center back. The Arc Furnace will automatically push outputs and slag to connected receptacles.<br>
Right-clicking the panel, cauldron, or vat will open the interface.<np>
§lInterface:§r
The interface may look confusing upon first seeing it, but it's quite straight forward.

The three slots at the top are for the <link;graphite;Graphite Electrodes;electrode>.
The twelve slots on the left are the input slots for metals and ores. Each slot has a temperature bar next to it, representing the progress of smelting.
The four slots on the right are for "additives", different materials added to the molten metal during the crafting process. An example of these would be adding Coke Dust to melting Iron in order to create Steel.
Inputs and additives are inserted through the two hatches at the top of the structure, inputs to the left and additives to the right of the electrodes.
The seven slots at the bottom are six output slots and a slot for slag. Outputs are retrieved from the 'bucket' at the front of the structure, slag through the port at the back of the machine. The Arc Furnace will automatically push output and slag to connected inventories (this includes Conveyor Belts).

Assembler
Some assembly required
<&multiblock>The Assembler is a complex machine capable of crafting items, similar to how a player would.
To form the structure, build it like demonstrated above and use the hammer on one of the conveyors.<np>
The conveyor you clicked will be the input side, indicated by the blue marker above it and the arrow on the side ot the machine.
The Assembler allows for up to 3 recipes to be stored inside it that will be performed in order. The outputs of previous recipes can be used as inputs for following recipes.
The 3 crafting grids store the recipes, and the 18 slots below them are the inventory for materials.<np>
The input side, in addition to an item input also features a fluid input to fill the three internal tanks of the machine.
Fluid in these tanks can be used to replace fluid containers like water buckets in recipes.
Power for the machine is input through the top center block.

Bottling Machine

<&multiblock>The Bottling Machine fills fluids into containers or molds.<br>
The structure is created as shown above, but can be mirrored. To form it, rightclick the central conveyor with an Engineer's Hammer. The direction of the conveyors is important.<np>
The machine can store 8 buckets of fluid, which is input through the ports on the metal tank. Energy is input through the connection at the top of the opposing side.<br>
Generally, the Bottling Machine will be able to fill any container that has a filled version available (bucket, glass bottle). It will also accept other items that can store fluids, like the <link;mining_drill;Mining Drill;start> or a <link;jerrycan;Jerrycan;start>.
The machine will hold onto a container until it is completely full, or the machine is not being supplied with any more fluid. This allows it to fill even larger containers, provided it receives a steady input of fluid.

Crusher
Keep your hands out!
Crushing an ore is an effective way of increasing their yield, for each ore creates two dusts which you can then smelt. This industrial-size crusher is a quick way of doing so. The machine's processing speed depends on the power supplied to it.
Applying a redstone signal to the control panel at the front will halt the crushers process, this behavior can be inverted by use of the Engineer's Screwdriver.
The structure is formed by right clicking the central block of the front with an Engineer's Hammer. The front is the wide side of the structure which has a light engineering block at the bottom.
However, it is not only used for crushing ores. Every living being to fall into the machine will take grave damage and the crusher will output the relevant drops. Likewise, all items that cannot be processed will be destroyed.

Drum crushers are an industrial method of reducing ores and metals to dust, and your enemies to soup-like homogenate.
The Crusher can also process blocks such as cobblestone into gravels and reduced forms.<br>
The machine is formed as shown previously by right-clicking the central fence of the long side with the redstone input with an Engineer's Hammer.<br>
The processing speed of the Crusher depends on the power supplied to it, with efficiency kept constant.<br>
