Electric Furnace

The Electric Furnace is the powered version of a normal furnace. It smelts standard furnace inputs through your Energy and Electricity network instead of burning coal or other fuel by hand.

• Connect the machine to a powered energy network.
• Put a smeltable item into the input slot.
• Make sure the output has space.
• Collect the finished item once the process is done.

• The Electric Furnace follows the same general recipe family as a vanilla furnace.
• It does not need burn fuel because the machine runs on stored or incoming power.
• If the network cannot keep up with the power draw, the machine pauses until power is available again.

• The Electric Furnace supports all four Machine Modules: Speed, Efficiency, Capacity, and Productivity.
• On plain smelting lines, Speed and Efficiency are usually the easiest first upgrades to notice.

• This is one of the easiest starter machines to automate because it replaces both a furnace and its fuel supply.
• Pair it with cargo or adjacent storage once you are running several smelting lines at once.
