How to build

  1. Large Arboreal Extractor: a 3 × 3 brick base with dirt in the middle, a 5-log jungle trunk on it, jungle leaves on top and brick slabs as the rim. The controller sits in the second brick layer; a ULV input bus and a ULV fluid output hatch replace two base bricks. — start_core:large_arboreal_extractor, minecraft:bricks, minecraft:jungle_log
  2. A screw in the input bus is the tap and is never used up. Wood screw: 100 mB latex every 20 s (300 mB per minute). — gtceu:wood_screw, gtceu:iron_screw
  3. With an iron screw plus fertilizer in the bus, output rises: bone meal 150, compost 200, fertilizer 250 mB per 20 s. Each run uses the fertilizer only 25 % of the time (fertilizer: 0.75 per minute for 750 mB latex). — minecraft:bone_meal, thermal:compost, gtceu:fertilizer
  4. Latex to an LV Fluid Solidifier with a ball mold: 250 mB = 1 rubber in 6 s (8 EU/t). One extractor on fertilizer = 3 rubber per minute; build more extractors side by side to scale. — gtceu:lv_fluid_solidifier, gtceu:ball_casting_mold
  5. LV Chemical Reactor: 3 rubber + 1 sulfur dust → 576 mB liquid rubber (12 s). A second solidifier with a plate mold makes 144 mB = 1 rubber plate, so 3 rubber become 4 plates. Liquid rubber also coats cables directly in the assembler. — gtceu:lv_chemical_reactor, gtceu:sulfur_dust
  6. Before LV: heated Create mixer (3 rubber + sulfur → 3 cured rubber) then a press (cured rubber → rubber plate). Works, but 25 % less rubber per plate. — create:mechanical_mixer, create:mechanical_press

Tips

  • No power at all: the extractor is a brick multiblock built around a small jungle tree you place yourself (5 logs, 5 leaves).
  • Chemical reactor route: 3 rubber + 1 sulfur = 576 mB = 4 plates. The Create mixer + press gives only 3 plates for the same rubber.
  • Thermal’s small Arboreal Extractor only reads rubberwood trees, and rubberwood saplings are hidden in this pack: it gives nothing here.
  • Needs fertilizer from the LV fertilizer line (optional: it only raises the yield).
