Igneous Extruder

This thing rocks!

The Igneous Extruder is one of the Machines added by Thermal Expansion. It mixes Water and Lava into different types of igneous rock: Cobblestone, Stone and Obsidian. This is one of the few Machines that doesn't use Redstone Flux.

Installing Batch Size Augments allows the Machine to work much faster by producing multiple blocks at once.

Input/Output

The different sides of the Igneous Extruder correspond to different color-coded slots and tanks in its GUI. These sides can be identified by color-coded openings in the sides of the Extruder. This is used for handling input and output with ducts/pipes/conduits/tubes, other Machines and other types of inventories and/or fluid tanks.

If the Integrated Modular Framework Augment is installed, this feature of the Igneous Extruder can be configured. Some things can be inserted from any side.

If the Integrated Servo Mechanism Augment is installed, output items are automatically ejected from the corresponding sides of the Igneous Extruder, evenly divided between the available outputs.

Recipes

The Igneous Extruder can mix Water and Lava into Cobblestone, Stone or Obsidian. These three possible products require different amounts of Water, Lava and time. The following table displays those amounts.
