Required Tool

The Compactor is a machine added by RotaryCraft. The Compactor is used to squeeze materials together under extreme pressure and heat. It is essential in creating the Permanent Magnets used in ReactorCraft. When powered the pressure will increase very slowly. All steps require a pressure of 550000kPa and a temperature greater than 800C. The Compactor will gradually heat or cool depending on its surroundings, so Lava must be placed touching it. Pressure is built up by applying high torque. Because of its slow start speed, it is advised to keep it constantly running if possible.

Recipe

RotaryCraft Handbook Description

The compactor is capable of compressing coal until it becomes Anthracite, then Prismane, then Lonsdaleite, then Diamond. Each stage will require four of the input items per unit output. All steps require pressure of 550000kPa and temperature of greater than 800C to take place. The compactor will gradually heat or cool depending on its surroundings, and pressure is built up by applying high torque.

Operation

From left to right, the GUI shows the input slots, output slot, temperature gauge, and pressure gauge

The Compactor can produce the following, processing 4 items per operation:

• Coal x32 -> Anthracite x16 -> Prismane x8 -> Lonsdaleite x4 -> Diamond x2
• Blaze Powder x4 -> Glowstone
• Lodestone x512 -> Permanent Magnet (1.000 mT) x256 -> Permanent Magnet (4.000 mT) x128 ->

Permanent Magnet (16.000 mT) x64 -> Permanent Magnet (64.000 mT) x32 -> Permanent Magnet (256.000 mT) x16 ->

Permanent Magnet (1.024 T) x8 -> Permanent Magnet (4.096 T) x4 -> Permanent Magnet (16.284 T) x2

Additional Information

• Required Power: Min: 262kW; Ideal: 2MW
• Required Torque: 4096 Nm
• Required Pressure: 550000kPa
• Required Temperature: 800C
• Max Pressure: 600000kPa
• Max Temperature: 1000C
• Power Input: Back

Simple Set-up

An effective set up to make Magnets and Glowstone: Performance Engine (With fuel additives) --> 16:1 Gearbox (Minimum Steel, Set to Torque Mode) --> Compactor

Note

• At least two Microturbines are required to raise the pressure to start the diamond fabrication process.
