Productivity Upgrade Module
Contents
Overview
The Speed Module (previously know as the Productivity Upgrade Module) is a 2x1x1 block that can be placed on an Assembler or a Refinery to make its Assembling/Refining speed increase. Each module will increase the speed of ore/component production, and will also increase power consumption up to a maximum of 2.8 MW.
Usage
The Speed Module can only function if placed on a Refinery's or Assembler's attachment point, which increases the speed of Assembling/Refining. When a Speed module is placed on every possible attachment point it increases the productivity (which is the speed of Refining/Assembling) by 400%, which is a total of 500%. The Speed module must be fully placed onto an Assembler/Refinery for it to function properly. While single a upgrade module may be placed on only one upgrade port, this does halve the efficacy of the modules.
Formula:
Total Productivity = 100% + 50% x Attachment points connected to upgrade module, each module provides 2.
(100% + 50% * SpeedAttachments)
Power Consumption = ---------------------------------------
(1.2228445^PowerEfficiencyAttachments)
| No. of Modules | Total Productivity | Max Power Consumption [kW] |
|---|---|---|
| 0 | 100% | 560.00 |
| 1 | 200% | 1120.00 |
| 2 | 300% | 1680.00 |
| 3 | 400% | 2240.00 |
| 4 | 500% | 2800.00 |

Tips
- To maximize Productivity is would take 8 motors, 40 Large Steel Tubes, 80 Small Steel Tubes, 160 Construction Components, and 400 Steel Plates in order get 300% Productivity.
