I showed this scheme not because it works fine or it is better than others. This scheme is very very simple, there is practically nothing superfluous in it, only two inserters without any adjustments, a belt and a filter inserters for picking up the finished productthereaverofdarkness wrote:There is a flaw in your design: occasionally an inserter will be busy scooping U-238 which may cause it to miss some U-235. Ultimately it's probably not a huge problem once the thing is properly buffered but my setup above adds inserters filtered to handle U-238 so that the stack inserters can focus on U-235. That way they run it perfectly every time.
I also belive that any solution which "works" and dont steal from base 40 pieces is good enough, there is definetly much more task then having 72 or 85 or 40 pices inside exactly... The solution of mine is trying to use fact that inserters are much more faster when it move things "from instance to instance" instead of waiting for any belt stacking and can be used even for one simple kovarex.Guu wrote:I showed this scheme not because it works fine or it is better than others.

No circuits, never clogs, never runs dry (will be back at full power eventually if you have enough U235 for one cycle, but will also prioritize powering up over production), and is easily expandable by extending the middle bit.
Works by keeping things on their side of the belt. The top inserter at the end will pull any U238 off the top half of the belt, allowing it to cycle to the bottom half. As long as the supply inserter and the cycle inserter have enough belt lag that there is a continuous gap (this design works with just 2 centrifuges, never tried one, might need an extra belt loop), you will never have the system clog. Inserters between centrifuges are entirely optional, and quite likely counterproductive if you expect this to ever wind down to a single cycle's worth of U235, but they shave a few seconds off the lag period between cycles. Which is interesting, considering I haven't taken the time to upgrade them to stack inserters (or to add S3s all around). I went a bit overboard on centrifuges this map. Note that the U238 inserters, both the cycle and the supply, have to feed the same side of the belt.
Edit: Oh, there's a second page...Well, this is very similar to Guu's design above, but it avoids the possible issue of U235 slipping by the feed inserter and a centrifuge shutting down. I specifically avoided that in this design.
Also, there may be some superfluous power poles.
Also note that the inserters have to be set up the way they are to prevent clogs. If the U238 cycle inserter is on the U238 side of the belt, it won't prioritize the ones on the U235 side, allowing it to clog. The U235 inserter just needs to be in the same square to avoid clogging.

Old thread but just wanted to say thanks for the design! It's working well for me, too well in fact. It was eating up all of my U-238!Repconn wrote: Mon May 01, 2017 10:23 am Hi, I'm quite new here, so please move this thread elsewhere if it is in the wrong place.^^
I just wanted to share a Kovarex enrichment setup that is working quite well for me.
