Well, this is my first post.

Isnt this a more compact and realistic setup? It produces equal amounts of both beaker types with a very minimal amounts of assemblers and reasonably little space. SP2 assemblers (including subassemblies) almost must work together with others. The setup is fed by 12 furnaces + 6 electric miners. (the ones off to the side are for steel production)

Here is my setup where I use all but one lane. These are fairly compact clusters, note the use of dividers and splitters, hard to see but the far right belt has both iron gears and belts on it. The only reason I don't have the left belt filled this way is that there is no advantage to it. It's really fast and doesn't need to be watched. I like using loops so that I can quickly visualize an interruption to production just by seeing if the loop is empty or full. The empty loop you see will be for future science packs which will ride on that inner loop.
