UC Tiered Machinery

Adds powered, tiered versions of UC's core machines — crushers, incinerators, and an electro press. The base UC machines upgrade into powered versions via this addon.

Tiered Crusher

Powered crusher with four tiers: basic → advanced → expert → ultimate.

basic_crusher = UC base crusher wrapped with:

basic_chip + steel_ingot + iron_ingot + redstone_block

Higher tiers — each wraps the previous:

higher_chip + steel_plate + energized_iron_plate + redstone_block

Powered versions process faster and handle higher-tier inputs than the base unpowered crusher.

Tiered Incinerator

A powered furnace/smelter that integrates with the UC power system.

  • Four tiers: basic → advanced → expert → ultimate
  • This is the UC-power-connected smelting option
  • Distinct from Better Smelters, which are standalone (no UC power required)

Electro Press

Makes plates from ingots. Plates are required ingredients for advanced-tier generators and machine upgrades.

Four tiers: basic → advanced → expert → ultimate.

Plates produced:

  • iron_plate
  • gold_plate
  • steel_plate
  • copper_plate
  • energized_iron_plate
  • netherite_plate
  • diamond_plate (and others)

Plates are used heavily in advanced/expert/ultimate tier upgrades throughout UC. Build an electro press early once you have power — it unlocks the full progression path.
