I understand that you don't want to participate further. Thank you Tertius for giving me some ideas.

Thank you for your contribution, very inspiring. However, in my creation, it would ideally be necessary to force the arms to activate simultaneously, for several reasons. First, to equitably supply the ovens and other assemblers. Second, to better control the electricity used, and lastly, because it ...

You're right.

Here's my creation.

I sometimes use the board editor to complete my projects.

I admit that I sometimes have difficulty understanding how logic circuits work, especially when it comes to inserters.

I will persevere to achieve the desired result. I will update this post if I manage to find a solution.

After several unsuccessful attempts, I was unable to achieve the desired result... It's much more difficult than I thought. I tried incorporating a saturation detector, so the arms don't activate if the belt is full, but this doesn't seem to be a fast enough detection method.

Thank you very much Shirasik ! I will try to apply this today.

I'm reviving this thread because I haven't been able to achieve anything perfect, or at least not what I expected. Implementing an inactivity detector is difficult. Either I get a uniform trunk emptying, but in this case, the belt isn't full, or the first and second trunks don't empty at the same ...

An even unload is ensured for my examples in the second post. No matter how uneven the unloading is performed. Just one lane, complete block, slow, fast. All the chests will be empty within the same second. No circuit control required. That's because of the balancers at the output.


I tried ...

Exactly the same amount? Not even 1 item off? That's a very hard constraint. I recommend you revisit your greater approach in general to not have this constraint. What are you trying to do? I don't have an idea where such a constraint would be required or useful.

What you can do is exactly ...

I mainly need to fairly clear the coffers for another project. I'm requesting this in the form of a stamp because it's easier to present it that way.

I'm sorry, but I don't understand these sentences. What do you mean with "...for another project" and "form of a stamp"? Why will the proposed ...

Thank you, Tertius, but as mentioned earlier, I mainly need to fairly clear the coffers for another project. I'm requesting this in the form of a stamp because it's easier to present it that way.

In any case, I wasn't aware of the projects you shared, so I'm keeping these.

I think my project is ...

Excuse me Nidan, what exactly is a Madzuri Charger? Is it a creation that allows you to uniformly empty a set number of chests?

Thanks for your feedback Tertius, but that's not what I want to achieve. I don't actually use a buffer zone in my factory, but it allows me to better present a future project, which is more complex, but which notably requires that boxes are emptied fairly. Loading boxes fairly at the entrance is ...

I agree with you on the usefulness of a buffer within a factory. In fact, that's not exactly what I want to use it for. I am looking to create an "on-demand store" for a defined and fully configurable production line. I am only at the beginning, and I needed help with this.
My only condition is that ...

I don't think I would have thought of this solution and I didn't think it would be so simple in the end.

Thank you so much !

Thank you for your participation.

It seems that I was using the Madzuri method without knowing it.

I don't want to choose between entry and exit. My idea would be to create a perfect mix between the two. I think I will have to find a solution to signal the inserters to only activate when the ...

Thank you for your feedback. However, I don't think I will be able to put your knowledge into practice. It's quite unclear to me in this case.


Do you have an example perhaps ?

Hello factorian friend,

The text below was translated on Google Translate, from French to English, my apologies if it is not clear enough.

Can you help me improve this creation ?
