200 Aluminum Ingots (6x6) V02 [Sentinel]

UPDATE for 1.0: Thank you for your inputs. I deleted the beam on the top floor, labeled the inputs better, recreated the whole wiring system for electricity and lights (separated inputs, most cables are now hidden), painted all pipe support white, filled the smelters/foundries with alum. scrap for better startup, recreated all belts. !!! You can change the belts underground to Mk5. At the moment the underground belts for distribution are all Mk6. !!!

200 Aluminum Ingots Production on a 6x6 Grid. I used this setup to process 5000+ bauxite.

Input: 120 coal, 240 bauxite, 240 water (120 water from one refinery is reused. There was never a problem with clogged waste water)

Default recipe: Alumina Solution, Alumina Scrap, Alumina Ingot, Pure Alumina Ingot

Blueprint is initially based on the Cyprium's Aluminum Production [https://satisfactory-calculator.com/en/blueprints/index/details/id/1458/name/Cyprium%27s+Aluminum+Production]. Credits to him. Compared to Cypriums blueprint, I added a smart splitter for the alum. scrap before the foundries, so that there is no overflow of Silica anymore. However, there is still an overflow for Silica included as indicated in the picture, because I use the overflow sometime for unbalanced startups (when I do changes in my builds and one raw material is not available for a short time).

Any feedback or comments are appreciated. Is there anything to improve?

    Brother, I have built and dismantled this blueprint about 14 times. If I venmo you a few bucks, could you PLEASE label the inputs? I figured out where to feed in the bauxite, but no other belt moving in the same direction will distribute the needed coal.

    Unrelated, but when the Dismantle tool is used in "Blueprint" mode, 175 units of cable disappear. Just an FYI. :)

    Thank you for the feedback. I will change the blueprint as soon as the blueprint mod is available for 1.0, so that the blueprint can be edited in the vanilla 6x6 blueprint designer. (I will check the painted beam on the top floor, color of the pipes, some improvements with the under floor. I won't change the cables below, because I do not see them from above)

    Very nice works as advertised no problems in 1.0

    This build is incredible! I love how modular the whole thing is, and the extra considerations you've taken such as the spare rom for pipe and belt expansion, small frame pillars supporting catwalks and belt stacks, integrated lighting and so much more. This is such a clean, functional and beautiful build - I'm obsessed!

    Regarding improvements, it's hard to find anything! I did notice a painted beam on the top floor by the smelters that I couldn't make sense of. It'd also be great to have the arrow signs and stackable pipe supports painted white, but these are quick fixes. I'd also take a look at the cabling underneath. The split light and power lines are great, but personally I'd like to see more hidden cables.

    Overall, this is an unbelievable build, in terms of aesthetics and practicality. The level of thought put into this is humbling. With the significant additional expansion room for belts and pipes, in both the input and output (with dedicated sections) is amazing to see, and the way the entire build links together with the double catwalk looks fantastic. I'm excited to see what more you can make, especially anything that links in to this modular system. Thank you for your build!
