Early game steel pipe(160ppm) + steel beam(140ppm) factory

Early game steel pipe + steel beam factory

Input:
Coal 2x 267
Iron ore 2x 267

Output:
Steel pipe 160
Steel beam 140

Size: 7x12 foundations

This is considered as early game, so only MK.3 belts are used. And because of this, building is split to two identical, independent floors. Each floor have input Coal 267 + Iron ore 267 and output Steel pipe 80 + Steel beam 70. Power is also split, so you can easily connect only one floor and later if needed, just connect another input/output belts and power and enjoy double production.

You don't need to unlock any architecture parts. MK.3 belts is enough and you can build it.
No mods are required.

If you need to add more inventory slots, there are three ways:

Easiest Method

  • Find your game.ini file at:
    %LOCALAPPDATA%\FactoryGame\Saved\Config\Windows
  • Open it and add these three lines: 
    [/Script/FactoryGame.FGPlayerSettings]
mDefaultPlayerInventorySlots=200
mDefaultArmEquipmentSlots=5
  • Save the file, start the game, and you will have 200 inventory slots.

    REALLY GOOD BLUEPRINT! It helped me a lot in my playthrough

  • FrancoBam - Oct 6, 2024, 9:54:04 AM

    Great. Thank you!

  • jurah - Sep 25, 2024, 3:55:08 PM

    Thank you for all your blueprints Katoo, this one is also great! No problems using, thanks for clearly signing what the inputs and outputs are.

    Lucky_Lad purpose of this blueprint is to build it, not to load it to designer. Simple choose it from BP menu and place it somewhere on foundations. Thats it. Anyway, if for any reason, you need to load it to designer, you need to use modded designer, not the default one. But loading to designer, has nothing with building of blueprint and its using.

  • Lucky_Lad - May 13, 2024, 2:53:09 PM

    Any time I try load the blueprint it says "This blueprint does not fit the dimensions of this blueprint designer"

    GI66 both floor are completely independent, you need to connect both inputs and also power to second floor.

  • GI66 - Mar 2, 2024, 8:46:04 PM

    Nice design but the upper floor is not working. It is too compact for me to try to delete and put back to find out where the problem is. Any ideas where to check?

  • Beene - Oct 6, 2023, 8:37:11 AM

    Is there another version of this that only has the parts that make the steel beams and pipes

  • FrancoBam - Sep 4, 2023, 6:26:12 PM

    Very nice looking and functional build, works smoothly, Love that, Thank you! Will also check a lot of your other builds as I progress.

  • Katoo - Jun 26, 2023, 6:08:19 AM

    @xebtria It is witten in comment, that MK3 belts are used, so it make sense, you need steel beam for all belts inside building. Unfortunately, SCIM page is not counting length of belts, so required materials for belts and pipes are not accurate. This i cannot change, it is SCIM engine. You dont need to craft them manually, just anywhere on ground put one foundry and constructor and make beams you need to build BP. You can feed building by MK2, it will works, but with lower production rate. And once beams will be produced, you can upgrade MK2 to MK3. Concerning alt recipe, it is as i mentioned. Just build it, you dont need to unlock it. Enjoy.

  • xebtria - Jun 25, 2023, 9:42:38 AM

    also, a note that it does use the solid steel ingot alt recipe would've been nice as well. I thought it wasn't and was pleasantly surprised that it is, but the statement "you just need mk3 belts and you can build it" is not exactly true. beginners might be surprised by it.

  • xebtria - Jun 25, 2023, 9:08:13 AM

    Building Cost does not match what it shows ingame. Ingame it tells me (brackets for comparison to what it says here):

    2350 concrete (1924) 950 iron plate (650) 438 cable (338) 632 steel beam (212) 188 silica (122) 306 reinforced iron plate (150)

    the rest of the numbers are correct here. the most irritating part is steel beams, as this is meant to produce them, but I need more than 400 more than what the site says here, plus not to mention I also need 2 MK3 belts to feed it for it to run.

    I have not yet build it myself, but is it possible to first feed it with an MK2 belt initially, or would it not work properly with only that much to start? because if it wouldn't I would need even more than those 632 steel beams to get it running, which is quite an annoyance as crafting steel beams manually is a damn pain which is why I want to use that blueprint in the first place :D

    also it would be REALLY nice if there would be a list of things needed from the awesome shop for that blueprint, but this is true for every single blueprint on that site. nobody says which things from there you need for blueprints :( I think I needed to produce something like 26 tokens to buy the things from the shop for this blueprint

  • aArizonaman711 - Jun 24, 2023, 9:28:14 PM

    i wish there was a version of this that i could just imput the iron ingots instead of iron ore would be dope

  • Katoo - Jun 22, 2023, 8:05:20 PM

    @Nillerk it is a mod, Blueprint Designer Plus. It has size 12x12x12 foundations. BP created in this designer works also on not modded game, so everyone can use it.

  • Nillerk - Jun 22, 2023, 6:00:19 PM

    How do you make Blueprints bigger than the blueprint designer?

  • NexusKD6-3.7 - May 18, 2023, 6:25:20 AM

    Awesome factory!

  • Momoniu - Apr 22, 2023, 10:18:16 PM

    Great design, However in the blueprint cost tab, the cost is way off.

  • Risu77 - Apr 22, 2023, 1:06:57 AM

    Works perfectly

  • HappMacDonald - Apr 6, 2023, 11:47:34 PM

    Building make things. Good job building, you win at thing make. :D

  • silvergipper - Mar 28, 2023, 1:14:31 PM

    Another perfect factory - i have 3 of those side by side churning out more pipes and beams than i can handle. A+ on the building as it looks as nice inside as it does outside.
