How to craft Heavy Modular Frame
Quantities below are per complete recipe batch. Rates are for one machine at 100% clock. Keep every output moving so byproducts do not block production.
Unlock the recipe and Manufacturer, then supply the machine with all four ingredients. Alternate recipes that use Heavy Modular Frames for other products need their own unlocks.
Heavy Modular Frames are robust components used in Fused Modular Frame, Adaptive Control Unit, and Hoverpack recipes. The default recipe runs in a Manufacturer: 5 Modular Frames, 20 Steel Pipes, 5 Encased Industrial Beams, and 120 Screws produce 1 Heavy Modular Frame. At 100% clock, output is 2 per minute. The 120 Screws per batch and the need to keep all four inputs supplied are common planning challenges.

How to craft
Before you craft
Heavy Modular Frame recipe and Manufacturer access.
Modular Frame: 5 per batch.
Steel Pipe: 20 per batch.
Encased Industrial Beam: 5 per batch.
Screws: 120 per batch.
Unlock the Heavy Modular Frame recipe and build a powered Manufacturer.
Produce Modular Frames and deliver 5 per batch.
Deliver 20 Steel Pipes per batch.
Deliver 5 Encased Industrial Beams per batch.
Supply 120 Screws per batch and check that the line can keep up.
Select Heavy Modular Frame in the Manufacturer and collect the output.
At 100% clock, plan for 2 Heavy Modular Frames per minute and route them to your intended consumers.
Crafting tips
When production pauses, inspect each of the four input lines before changing the machine settings.
At 100% clock, the recipe uses 10 Modular Frames, 40 Steel Pipes, 10 Encased Industrial Beams, and 240 Screws per minute.
Repeat, collect and use
Keep the Manufacturer running while downstream demand exists; adjust input supply or clock to match that demand.
Common mistakes
Searching for a Heavy Modular Frame resource node or trying to produce the frame in an Assembler.
Underfeeding Screws or leaving one of the four Manufacturer inputs disconnected.
When to stop or switch
Stop or reduce production when downstream consumers are supplied or your target buffer is full.
Unlock the recipe and Manufacturer, then supply the machine with all four ingredients. Alternate recipes that use Heavy Modular Frames for other products need their own unlocks.
