# Iridium Production Calculations
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
**200 total iridium ingots needed**
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Making Plates
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
*No iridium is needed in ingot form, everything can be converted to plates!*
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
50 Plates are needed for the Fusion Reactor. Nothing needed for anything else!
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
An Implosion Compressor makes 1 plate per second from Iridium Alloy Ingots. That takes a minute for all Iridium Plates needed in the run, using 32EU/t. Basically completely irrelevant other than having to place the machine once.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
For 50 Iridium Plates, 400 Industrial TNT are needed.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Making Iridium Alloy Ingots
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Make in a rolling machine using 4 Iridium Ingots, 4 Advanced Alloys and 1 Diamond Dust. Takes 5 seconds per Plate. For 50 Plates that is about 4 minutes. Uses MJ.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Making Ingots
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
From Ore: Compress 1 ore to 1 ingot.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
From Sheldonite: Grind Sheldonite with mercury cells in the Industrial Grinder. Takes 5s per ore and 128EU/t. Produces 2 Iridium Nuggets and 3 Platinum Dust per ore. Platinum Dust can be centrifuged to Iridium Nuggets 1:1, so in total that is 5/9 Iridium Ingots per Sheldonite Ore. Compress the nuggets into ingots.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
From Ferrous Ore: Grind Ferrous with mercury cells in the Industrial Grinder. Takes 5s per ore and 128EU/t. Produces 1 Platinum Dust per ore.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Centrifuging Platinum Dust
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1 Centrifuge takes 1 Platinum Dust (no cells) and makes 1 Iridium Nugget (and 1 tiny pile of Nickel Dust) in 150s using 5EU/t.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
One stack of centrifuges produces 0.427 Iridium Nuggets per second, which is 0.047 Iridium Ingots per second or 2.84 Iridium Ingots per Minute.
