my balanced train unloader

Post by massa84 »

This is my balanced train unloader. I wanted to create a solution that was fully balanced and this is the most compact thing I manage to create.
It uses madzuri logic circuits connection but provides full chest, lane balancing and belt balancing. (as long as you add a 4to4 or 8to8) while providing full throughput (2 compressed blue belts, one per side, per wagon)

Are yellow splitters necessary?

3x yellow are also splitted for two blue belt lanes, so single lane takes 1.5 of yellow. There should be no problems with the throughput.

Chest balancing is made by madzuri circuits, splitters are not necessary for this.

If your lines are overloaded, then only two left-most crates per wagon will be unloaded, not all 6, because two left-most have priority so it's unbalanced.
