How to Convert Electricity into Kinetic Power with the Electric Motor

Powering the Electric Motor

The Electric Motor consumes Forge Energy (FE) to drive mechanical shafts, making it the inverse of the Alternator.

1. Place the Electric Motor where you require rotational power for your machinery.

2. Connect the motor to your electrical grid using a connector and wire spool linked to an Accumulator, an Alternator, or another Forge Energy source.

3. Once energized, the front shaft of the motor will begin to rotate.

4. Inspect the motor directly to view its active kinetic stress capacity and its current energy consumption rate.

Adjusting Speed and Computer Automation

You can fine-tune and automate the motor's kinetic output:

• Speed Configuration: Walk to the back of the Electric Motor block to adjust its rotational speed settings to suit your factory's requirements.
• ComputerCraft Integration: The Electric Motor functions as a native ComputerCraft peripheral. Place an adjacent computer to monitor status or control motor parameters programmatically.
• Digital Adapter: To interact with other kinetic blocks through ComputerCraft, attach a Digital Adapter to allow connected computers to read and interface with your kinetic network.
