The ''Macerator'' is an all purpose grinding machine, capable of breaking down many ores and other items into their base components.
The [[Macerator]] is the first machine in the IC&sup2; [[ore processing]] chain.  It can also convert some blocks and items into other, potentially more useful resources.
 
For example, the Macerator grinds down '''one''' [[Tin Ore]] into '''two''' [[Dusts|Tin Dust]], each of which can be smelted into a [[Tin|Tin Ingot]].
 
Easily '''doubles''' mining profits! How's that for a Hayo-ish tool!?
 
It uses either a direct [[Cable]] connection or an energy storage item ([[Single-use Battery]] or [[RE Battery]]).

As a basic machine (and also [[power tier]] 1), the macerator has a simple GUI with three slots: input, energy item (if needed), and output, shown below.

The macerator's use in the [[ore processing]] chain - crushing ore into crushed ore as seen above - is detailed on that page.
 
A few general notes on recipes:
* Any metal ingot may be macerated into its respective dust, with the exception of {{Gin|Steel Ingot}} which returns {{Gin|Iron Dust}} (as steel dust doesn't exist).
* Any metal plate (and also obsidian and lapis) may be macerated into 8 tiny piles of dust, except for {{Gin|Steel Plate}} which cannot be macerated<sup>[2.6.130-ex110]</sup>.
* Any ''dense'' metal plate (again including obsidian and lapis) may be macerated into 8 dust, with the exception of {{Gin|Dense Steel Plate}} which returns 8 {{Gin|Iron Dust}}.
* Plant matter can often be macerated to produce {{Gin|Bio Chaff}}.  More detail (and the list of recipes) is available on its page.

== Usage ==
Stupid people (this does not apply to customers or everyone reading this, but to everyone you personally dislike) smelt ore.
What a shameful waste. You just smelt some ore out of the rock and then trash the remains? Nah, only idiots do that.


It reduces ore blocks (and {{mp|Clay_Blocks|Clay blocks}}) into 2 [[Dusts]] and {{mp|Coal}} into 1 Coal Dust. It can grind {{mp|Cobblestone}} and {{mp|Sandstone}} into {{mp|Sand}}. It can also convert {{mp|Gravel}} into {{mp|Flint}}.
Every '''Pro Miner''' knows, that 50% of a rock's mineral deposits are surrounded by massive rock and can't be obtained by smelting.


For this problem, we invented the '''Maceratron-E-901!'''


{{Grid/Machine
It uses the combined force of smart technology and brute force to break open every single tiny particle of stone, effectively doubling the efficiency of gaining ore.
|Type=Macerator
It takes some time, but will completely waste-free and '''100%-sure''' turn the entire ore-rock into dust and then automatically filter the useless stone out.

As a result, it will return you high-quality ore-dust of whatever material you dropped in there.

Trivia[edit]

  • The Macerator gives off dust particle effects while in use.

HAYO[edit]

The grinding pressure of the Macerator is kept at a modest 50 gibbl.

Did you ever feel like life was being unfair to you?

Did you ever feel angered about your neighbour miner finding loads of minerals whereas you didn't?

Now, did you ever take a look at his work station?

Do you want to know why he had giant loads of valuable ingots to craft into more awesome stuff?

HE HAD A MACERATOR!

Stupid people (this does not apply to customers or everyone reading this, but to everyone you personally dislike) smelt ore. What a shameful waste. You just smelt some ore out of the rock and then trash the remains? Nah, only idiots do that.

Every Pro Miner knows, that 50% of a rock's mineral deposits are surrounded by massive rock and can't be obtained by smelting.

For this problem, we invented the Maceratron-E-901!

It takes some time, but will completely waste-free and 100%-sure turn the entire ore-rock into dust and then automatically filter the useless stone out. As a result, it will return you high-quality ore-dust of whatever material you dropped in there.

And, you may guess it, this dust can be smelted into ingots! Isn't that great? You can easily DOUBLE your entire ore production. Don't hesitate, BUY NOW, HAYO!
