Encasing Cogwheels to Protect and Style Gear Trains

Applying Casings to Cogwheels

Exposed gears can disrupt the unified aesthetic of an enclosed factory build. Create Encased Mod lets you add casings directly onto cogwheels:

1. Position your cogwheels to establish your mechanical drive train and transfer kinetic energy.

2. Select the casing variant that best matches your machinery's design.

3. Apply the casing onto the placed cogwheel to encase the component.

Once encased, the cogwheel continues to deliver rotational power while presenting an industrial, heavy-duty housing.

Designing Industrial Machinery

Applying casings to cogwheels allows you to create streamlined, heavy-duty mechanical equipment:

• Encase cogwheel arrays inside factory workstations to prevent moving parts from cluttering tight spaces.
• Coordinate casing types with adjacent structural blocks to make gearboxes appear integrated into machine frames.
• Combine encased cogwheels alongside encased shafts for seamless mechanical lines that hide internal motion behind clean casing exteriors.
