How to Automate Cutting Recipes Using the Slicer
Installing the Slicer and Inserting Tools
The Slicer is a core processing machine that operates in a similar fashion to Create's Mechanical Mixer or Mechanical Press. Place the Slicer block into your processing line where you have rotational power available.
To prepare the machine for work:
1. Hold a knife or an axe in your main hand.
2. Right-click the Slicer to insert the tool directly inside the unit.
The Slicer automatically registers every cutting recipe provided by Farmer's Delight, using the inserted tool to handle the chopping automatically.
Setting Up an Automated Slicing Line
To process items continuously, configure your work area beneath the Slicer:
- Place a cutting board directly under the Slicer head to hold the items being cut.
- Set up Create conveyor belts to feed uncut items, such as raw meat or vegetables, directly onto the board.
- Use conveyor belts or mechanical funnels adjacent to the cutting board to extract the finished sliced products.
Once rotational power is applied, the Slicer repeatedly chops incoming items on the cutting board and outputs the processed results into your collection system.
