So …. many …. piping !
You might have number across some random resources while search through the Factoriopedia using Alt + Click inFactorio 2.0 . Some of the products you might have do across look incredibly useful and powerful , but you have no way to see or get them .
Most of these are new items from the Space Age DLC , such as Supercapacitors and Superconductors . They lead to powerful novel arm ( among other thing ) that could make your life easier . So if you ’re in Fulgora and do n’t know , here ’s how to make Superconductors in Factorio 2.0 .
How to Produce Superconductors in Factorio 2.0
Superconductors are the most used product in Fulgora in term of introducing young tech . Most of the future production billet in Fulgora and maybe even other planets will use Superconductors , which entail that you need lot of them , and fast . The production line for Superconductors is — thankfully — quite wanton .
You ’ll need Copper Plates , Plastic , Holmium Plates , and Light Oil . However , if you are in Fulgora , the Copper Plates and Plastic expect a few supererogatory steps compared to other planets . On the bright side , these excess steps actually make it easy to craft .
Since Copper Plates and Plastic are n’t part of the“recycled ” goods leaning from Scraps , you will need to recycle some of the materials you get from Scrap , specifically Low - Density Structures or Advanced Circuits for Plastics and Copper Cables or Batteries .

Create a completely different agate line from your Scrap Recycler output setup for recycle these intermediate products . Just commit them on a logistics web pectus ( red or violet ) after recycling the Cartesian product above .
For Light Oil , you desire to habituate the Heavy Oil Cracking to Light Oil recipe in a Chemical Plant . Since you have unlimited Heavy Oil , you’re able to turn it into Light Oil . You just require a manner to make water , which is well-heeled since you ’re getting Ice as a by - merchandise from recycling Scraps . Place down a Chemical Plant and produce Water , then localise the yield into another Chemical Plant to produce the Light Oil .
You are free to use as many Offshore Pumps as possible since you do n’t want to run out of Heavy Oil in your output lines . They are essentially free , so no reason not to .

For Holmium Plates , you want to make the Holmium Solution first . All the materials number from Scraps , namely Holmium Ore , Stone , and Ice ( Water ) . set the Holmium Solution ’s output into Assembly Machine 3 and pump out some Holmium Plates . You do n’t necessitate to create too many Holmium Plates , so put a limit point on your storage thorax for the Holmium Plates . The Holmium Solution will be postulate to make electrolyte later .
Once you have everything , you require to produce an Electromagnetic Plant with all the required materials to craft the Superconductors . Treat it as you would employ a Foundry inVulcanus . you could use a blue dresser to streamline all the product line , but you should result some place for succeeding expansions as you may need to make more plants .

What Are Superconductors Used For in Factorio 2.0?
Superconductors are primarily used to craft Supercapacitors and several other useful products . They are used to craft the next tier of weapons from Fulgora , which are the Tesla Gun and Tesla Turret . You also apply them to make the Railgun and Railgun Turret once you have access to other material on the fourth planet .
Superconductors also spread up upgrades to your armour through a Mech Armor , Personal Roboport MK.2 , and more . The most important use of Superconductors is to make Supercapacitors and turn them into the Electromagnetic Science Pack ( pink potion ) so you could begin unlocking novel technical school and progression .
gratuitous to say , you ’ll need K of these Superconductors , so you will definitely need some extra space to expand your production factories in Fulgora .
