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.

How to use it

  • 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.

Behavior

  • 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.

Module support

  • 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.

Tiers

Tier Speed Power Usage
Electric Furnace (I) 1x 4 W
Electric Furnace (II) 2x 6 W
Electric Furnace (III) 4x 10 W

Tips

  • 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.
