GT New Horizons · Insane Voltage (IV)
Mass Solidifier
The Mass Solidifier is an IV tier multiblock for casting liquid metals into molds. The Mass Solidifier is a direct upgrade from the singleblock fluid solidifier because it runs at 100-300% speed, only uses 80% of the EU/t normally required, and offers 10 parallels per voltage tier. The speed increases by 5% per second while active and decreases by 10% per second while inactive. Solidifier hatches have a configurable ghost slot for a mold that only applies to the fluid in its own hatch, allowing one machine to process as many recipes as needed. The Mass Solidifier is superseded by the Exo-Foundry in UEV.
Construction
The Mass Solidifier has one tiered component. The glass determines the maximum tier of the energy hatch. Buses/hatches may replace any solidifier casing anywhere on the structure. Multi-amp and laser energy hatches are not supported, but there can be multiple regular energy hatches for overclocking. Use the Multiblock Structure Hologram Projector to visualize/build the structure with subchannel "glass" to specify the tier of the glass.
Unique to the Mass Solidifier is the solidifier hatch which is effectively an input hatch with a configurable ghost slot for a mold. Shift-click the mold slot to open a menu with all the available options. The mold only applies to the fluid in its own hatch regardless of input separation settings. There are four tiers of the solidifier hatch for increasing its internal capacity and is eventually superseded by the crafting input buffer.

Wallsharing
Mass Solidifiers may wallshare each of their sides to save on casings, glass, and buses/hatches. No recipe uses more than 1A of power so it is possible to share one energy hatch between two machines.
Usage
The Mass Solidifier is a direct upgrade from the singleblock fluid solidifier because it runs at 100-300% speed, only uses 80% of the EU/t normally required, and offers 10 parallels per voltage tier, as seen in the following table.
| LV | MV | HV | EV | IV | LuV | ZPM | UV | UHV | UEV | UIV | UMV | UXV | MAX | MAX+ | |
| Parallels | 10 | 20 | 30 | 40 | 50 | 60 | 70 | 80 | 90 | 100 | 110 | 120 | 130 | 140 | 150 |
The speed increases by 5% per second while active and decreases by 10% per second while inactive. That means it takes 40 seconds of runtime to reach the maximum 300%, but only 20 seconds to lose it all. It is highly recommended to multiply patterns and keep the machine running for as long as possible to take full advantage of the boost. View the current speed through WAILA while looking at the machine's controller, or by using an industrial information panel.
Trivia
- The Mass Solidifier replaced the Fluid Shaper in GTNH 2.9.
