Assembling machines are used to automate the manufacturing of products. You provide the needed ingredients and power. When these needs are met, production will start. Finished products can be extracted by Inserters on to transport belts or into chests, trains or other storage. More advanced assembling machines use more power but are capable of manufacturing products with a higher quantity of ingredients, at a faster speed and with higher amounts of Modules attached.
