Break Free of the Spaghetti! - Satisfactory Manufacturer Design & Logistics Tutorial

When you unlock the manufacturer in Satisfactory, it can be a challenge to find an efficient and organized design that works. This video shows two different manifold design ideas on how feed your Satisfactory manufacturers and avoid conveyor belt spaghetti.

The first design is an easy efficient one for your first manufacturer experience that you can throw together anywhere pretty easily with a little conveyor belt bus and some splitters.

The second design is perfect for those factories that you want to keep really neat, tidy, and efficient using a logistics floor to hide your conveyor belts.

I even throw in a bonus power hiding tip towards the end to give your Satisfactory build an extra touch of cleanliness.

The alternating lifts in the sandwich layer is a game changer!

[kameleongreen]

Probably one of the best and cleanest aesthetics i've seen so far in a satisfactory build!

less than 3 min in and you have already shown me 2 tips that have me starting up satis right now! Thanks.

This is so much more helpful than the avarage step by step "build this here, then this here, then that here."
Thanks a lot.

This looks amazing, well done!

Mine is a giant mess, the entire world… stuff everywhere, there is no fixing… it’s a wipe and start again lol

[thaphreak]

Just hide the spaghets in a sub floor 😂

I recently started playing after years away. I've become addicted to logistics floors. It looks so neat, and I have space to run around my machines.
Great designs Doc, and thx for the tips

When you had to re-do the belts at 2:55: I felt that in my soul.

Building a lot of pipes is so much nicer because you dont have to worry about direction. Also this simple variant is pretty close to how I do it usually, mine is just a touch more asthetically pleasing IMO, though it takes up a ton of space. I stack 4 splitters at the first hole (depending on what direction the parts are coming from) positioned 1-1.5 foundations away and belt them in from there, it doesn't clip, but it takes up a lot of space. I guess the upside is you can see if there's a problem with a line faster, but really I'm just exhausted by the time I get to the end of a factory that ends in manufacturers and just want to set it up as simply as possible.

I probably won't bother with logistic floors, or other cosmetic belt/wire hiding (I like the industrial nightmare asthetic for my factories), but I got a big bolt of inspiration on how I wanna do my Frames production. I'm gonna go to the Rocky Desert starting zone and build 3 giant floors for the 3 tiers of frames, maybe this time I'll actually use walls and make it look like.... something, though likely only after it's complete.

6:00 - simple, yet so elegant! I will definitely implement this idea in my next build involving manufacturers! Thanks :)

Another tip for clean power lines when you have a floor beneath your machines: Wall mounted power nodes can be mounted at the ceiling, and you can connect them to the machines above. That way even the power pole will be gone.

i'm only on my first playthrough, and I've already wiped and restarted my factory twice, but this'll give me quite a bit to think about moving forward in my current and future builds.

[verbisdiablo]

It's crazy that this is what I found out by myself couple months ago and now I see someone making a video about it . Good video btw :)

I've been playing the same save for years. Its fun to walk the various floors and see both things missing that were added to the game after i built them and new techniques i incorporated as i got better at the game. Some of the early parts of the factory that fill my storage room with basic supplies on the lower floors are dark because lights hadn't been added yet and all the power is delivered by poles because wall outlets werent a thing. The first 3 floors have no logistics floor so belts are sort of stacked everywhere like your first example.

i just done my first floor fed system in a coal plant. saved a ton of room. those pipes sure do be space greedy.
your designs are really nice. i just don't have too much time to make things as sexy. top work

[Thomasful]

So many little SATISFying QoL things like being able to place splitters on belts. 70hrs and had no idea...

[vampbat]

1:48 I just unlocked Rotors & am deconstructing my things to use foundations for the first time... So this trick you just did was MINDBLOWING!

[BobBob-ittp]

awesome - the idea of raising the machine on a 2m foundation was simple genius x

[RobertoCorsini]

Four months later this is still a very relevant video. Thank you for great content! <3

[thefaithfulcraftsman]

Thanks for the video! Istarted doing this in my builds and i really like the clean look it gives, plus logistic floors help me from making a mess with belts. You could go one step further with the power and position a ceiling outlet in such a way that it's under the machine so that the wire doesnt show at all. i built my aluminum factory that way and there are no visible or barely visible power lines, looks really clean that way.

I like this series. It’s cool to see your save progressing as these videos drop
