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.

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 ?

Hello factorian friend,

Have any of you designed an “activity detector”?

I am looking for a machine that sends a signal when a production is inactive for X seconds, for example if it does not detect anything on the conveyor for 30 seconds. In the same way that you can configure a train to leave a ...

After my publication, I noticed and modified what you say accordingly, by simple observation.

Thanks for perfecting the tool.

Your explanations were clear, so I managed to create this.

Thank you so much !

For those who would be interested in this creation (but I doubt it), here is the plan.

Thank you for your detailed feedback. Despite my limited skills in logical networking, I will try to do what you advise me to do.

With this creation, my desire is not to limit or balance the flow of my factory. This is for the creation of a perfectly balanced manufacturing line that I have been ...

Hello factorian friend,

Is it possible to make this alternator configurable?

Thank you for your involvement Farcast !

Indeed, it is very close to my original idea. I will still work on it

This will output the correct total items across refreshes for odd numbered requests, or multiple inputs for the same item.


My basic idea is that each resource arrives one after the other and not simultaneously. One of my designs works, but not with blue belts.
