How to Etch and Print Parallel Circuits

Etching the Circuit

The Circuit Etcher block runs the lazierae2:etcher recipe to produce Printed Parallel Circuit. Place the Circuit Etcher, supply it with power and the required input items, and let it process. The output is Printed Parallel Circuit.

Printed Parallel Circuit is the intermediate step before the finished Parallel Processor. Do not skip it — the Parallel Processor recipe consumes the printed form.

Finishing the Parallel Processor

Once you have Printed Parallel Circuit, combine it with the other required components in a shaped crafting recipe to obtain Parallel Processor. Parallel Processor is the item that increases parallel crafting throughput in your ME network.

Workflow summary:

1. Run the Circuit Etcher to make Printed Parallel Circuit.

2. Craft Printed Parallel Circuit plus the remaining ingredients into Parallel Processor.

3. Install Parallel Processor where your ME crafting setup uses it.

Keep a stock of Printed Parallel Circuit so Parallel Processor jobs do not bottleneck on the etcher. If you are scaling up, add a second Circuit Etcher rather than waiting on a single one.
