HV — 512 EU/t · Automation Age I¶
Era id: hv · Tier: hv
Goal: Stainless steel, cleanroom, plastic boards, microprocessors, SMDs, PTFE and the LCR.
Exit items: gtceu:titanium_ingot, gtceu:ev_machine_hull
Steps¶
- Stainless — 6 Fe + Cr + Mn + Ni in the mixer → EBF (1700 K, 480 EU/t: an HV energy hatch or two MV hatches). Can be prepared at the end of MV. (
gtceu:stainless_steel_dust,gtceu:stainless_steel_ingot) - Kanthal — HV step in this pack: iron + aluminium + chromium in the mixer, EBF (1800 K, 480 EU/t, 45 s; HV hatch or two MV hatches), cool hot ingots in an MV chemical bath (100 mB water, 20 s); coil = 8 double wire + 8 aluminium foil + copper. (
gtceu:kanthal_coil_block,gtceu:hot_kanthal_ingot) - HV line — Lumium = silver + 3 tin + 2 glowstone. (
gtceu:lumium_ingot,gtceu:hv_4a_energy_converter) - Cleanroom — Nothing up to MV needs it. The controller is HV (HV hull, 2 HV motors, 1 HV circuit). Put circuit assemblers and engravers inside. (
gtceu:cleanroom,gtceu:filter_casing,gtceu:plascrete) - Microprocessors — Plastic boards + CPU chips. The whole HV/EV circuit tree. (
gtceu:plastic_printed_circuit_board,gtceu:cpu_chip,gtceu:microchip_processor) - SMDs — HV assembler; far cheaper components. (
gtceu:smd_transistor,gtceu:smd_resistor,gtceu:smd_capacitor) - PTFE → LCR — PTFE pipe casings unlock the LCR and its circuit-24 shortcuts. (
gtceu:polytetrafluoroethylene_bucket,gtceu:large_chemical_reactor) - Oil — No oil in the world: 32 logs → 16 B heavy oil in the pyrolyse oven (circuit 3). (
gtceu:pyrolyse_oven,gtceu:oil_heavy_bucket) - Energy crystals — Needed for HV/EV components and batteries. (
gtceu:energy_crystal,gtceu:hv_autoclave) - Auto maintenance — Swap every maintenance hatch. (

Setups¶
- Stainless steel: MV Mixer + HV Electric Blast Furnace
- PTFE: three HV Chemical Reactors
- Oil without oil: Pyrolyse Oven on logs, wood dust, plant balls or bio chaff
- Oxygen & nitrogen from air (Gas Collector + Centrifuge)
- HV circuits: Advanced Integrated Circuit and Microprocessor Assembly
- SMDs from HV Assemblers (one machine per part)
- Cleanroom (5×5×5): plascrete, filter casings, one energy hatch
- Kanthal: MV Mixer, HV EBF, chemical bath, wire, spring and coil block
- HV components 1/2: motor, pump, conveyor on LV assemblers
- HV components 2/2: piston, robot arm, emitter, sensor (and field generator) on LV assemblers
- Oil in a Distillery (no tower): methane from light oil, benzene from heavy oil
- Chromium: Void Extractor residue → chromite dust → electrolyzer → chromium dust, ingot and rod
- HV hull line (stainless casing + polyethylene)
Power¶
HV power: diatron gems in Lapidary Dynamos
Storage¶
- Autocrafting: Pattern providers on every machine; molecular assemblers for crafting-table recipes. (
ae2:pattern_provider,ae2:molecular_assembler) - Outputs: ME output bus/hatch on multis: products go straight to the network. (
gtceu:me_output_bus,gtceu:me_output_hatch) - Power transport: Flux Networks: wireless FE between generators and converters. Flux dust is an EV recipe, but the quest shop sells 8 plugs + 8 points for 16 coins once you build the Large Chemical Reactor. (
