Turning ordinary dry strands into refined paper sheets represents a key milestone in your factory progression. Hay paper commands strong sale prices and expands your automated export repertoire.
Machines Required for Paper Making
Paper manufacturing requires a two-stage processing line rather than a single direct converter. You need a pulper to break down the fibrous hay and a paper machine to press the pulp into smooth paper sheets.
Both machines require active electricity connections. Ensure your generator network has sufficient excess capacity before wiring your paper mill.
Assembling the Paper Production Line
To start the sequence, route a conveyor belt of raw hay directly from your main supply line into the pulper input. The pulper refines the raw material into wet fiber pulp.
From the pulper output, run an intermediate conveyor directly into the intake of your paper machine. The paper machine rolls and dries the slurry into finished sheets of hay paper.
Optimizing Paper Deliveries
Connect the output conveyor of your paper machine directly into the sell stand. Because paper yields a high sale margin, establishing a steady paper loop guarantees consistent income to fund subsequent tech tree upgrades.
