Basic Utilities

Circular Refineries

Sterling Systems provides a total of 20 parts across 4 sizes (1.25m, 2.5m, 3.75m, 5m) and 5 specialties. These parts use the WBI Omniconverter module by default, avoiding the PAW spam that commonly occurs with resource converter parts. Large diameters and the difficulty of placing a heavy part is generally preferred in this mod over the ease of placing many small parts but the lagfest that they cause. These recource converters are divided into specialties to further reduce the occurrence of PAW spam, declutter the recipe selection, and satisfy the needs of nerdy players who rather not have a single part that can do it all.

Specialties

• General Chemistry Center - All purpose or misc resource converter.
• Fissile Foundry - Handles all recipes concerning radioactive materials.
• Molten Metal Foundry - Handles all recipes concerning metalwork, very high voltages and very high temperatures.
• Titan Foundry - Handles all recipes concerning applications of immense force or pressure.
• Thermodyne - Facilitates high volume shifts of resources between liquid and gas form. For use by certain mods such as Kerbalism.

Circular Printeries

The printery suite is provided for any activity involving additive manufacture of parts and sub-components. Its services are, therefore:

• Sandcastle high volume 3D printer. Can print parts with larger volumes and at modestly faster rates.
• Extraplanetary Launchpads construction drone with higher unmanned productivity factor.
