How to Automate the Smeltery with Create Pipes and Tanks

If you have Create installed alongside Tinkers Construct Unofficial Port, you can automate your liquid metal handling instead of pouring every cast by hand.

Connecting Pipes and Fluid Tanks

1. Build your multi-block smeltery near your existing Create gear setups.

2. Attach Create fluid pipes directly to the smeltery's fluid ports to extract or insert molten materials.

3. Route the pipes into Create fluid tanks if you want to store extra molten metals or alloys outside the smeltery chamber.

4. Power your pipe network using your Create gear setups to start pumping liquids between the smeltery and your storage tanks.

Building Automated Casting Factories

1. Use your connected pipe network to move molten ores and alloys like Slimesteel, Pig Iron, or Manyullyn straight to your casting stations.

2. Set up the system anywhere your modpack allows—the smeltery and its machinery connections work normally on the ground as well as inside aeronautics contraptions or pressurized space station rooms.

3. Keep feeding raw ores into the smeltery while your Create pipes handle the liquid transfers automatically.
