Mega Alloy Blast Smelter
The Mega Alloy Blast Smelter (MABS) is a UV tier multiblock for mass smelting dusts into molten alloys. The MABS is a direct upgrade from the Alloy Blast Smelter because it offers 256 parallels, supports multi-amp and laser energy hatches for serious overclocking, reduces the length of recipes by 5% (additive) per heating coil tier above TPV-Alloy, and gains a 5% energy discount (multiplicative) for every heating coil tier above the recipe's voltage tier. The MABS also has unlimited tier skips which means the voltage tier of recipes is irrelevant as long as enough power is provided and the glass tier is greater than or equal to the recipe tier. There are 12 unique programmed circuits out of the 73 recipes.
Construction
The MABS has two tiered components. The heating coils determine the speed bonus and energy discount of the machine. The glass determines the maximum tier of the energy hatch AND the maximum tier of recipes. The maintenance hatch is limited to the eight casings around the controller and the muffler hatch is limited to the center casing on the top layer of the structure. The remaining buses/hatches may replace any casing on the bottom layer of the structure. Multi-amp and laser energy hatches are supported for serious overclocking, but only if there is at least UV tier glass. Use the Multiblock Structure Hologram Projector to visualize/build the structure with subchannels "coil" and "glass" to specify the tier of those components.
Structure
- Controller: Front center, 4th layer
- 360 Heating Coil (Tiered)
- 339 Any Tiered Glass (Tiered)
- 129-220 Blast Smelter Casing Block
- 56 Blast Smelter Heat Containment Coil
- 1+ Energy Hatch: Any bottom casing
- 1 Maintenance Hatch: Any casing around controller
- 1 Muffler Hatch: Top center casing
- 1+ Input Bus/Hatch: Any bottom casing
- 1+ Output Hatch: Any bottom casing
Wallsharing
MABS may wallshare each of their sides to save on casings, glass, and buses/hatches. However, do not share the energy hatch because the machine pulls as many amps as possible while there are still parallels or overclocks available.
Usage
The MABS is a direct upgrade from the Alloy Blast Smelter because it offers 256 parallels, supports multi-amp and laser energy hatches for serious overclocking, reduces the length of recipes by 5% (additive) per heating coil tier above TPV-Alloy, and gains a 5% energy discount (multiplicative) for every heating coil tier above the recipe's voltage tier, as seen in the following table. The MABS also has unlimited tier skips which means the voltage tier of recipes is irrelevant as long as enough power is provided and the glass tier is greater than or equal to the recipe tier. For example, a 256A ZPM laser target hatch can run UIV recipes if the glass tier allows it.

Input separation
should be enabled on the MABS to prevent SOLID ingredients in different input buses from being used in the same recipe, including any programmed circuits. That means a single MABS with many input buses can support many different programmed circuits simultaneously. FLUID ingredients are always shared regardless of input separation, unless the input hatch is colored.
Recipes
The following tables list all 73 ABS recipes by their voltage tier and programmed circuit (PC). In total, there are 12 unique programmed circuits to be spread out across 8 different input buses if the last few are combined.

Trivia
- The programmed circuit for ABS recipes is generally tied to the number of inputs, instead of actually preventing recipe conflicts.
