Wall — Factorio Production Calculator
Wall is crafted in the assembling machine in 0.5 seconds, producing 1 per craft from 5 × Stone brick. At 60 per minute you need 1 assembling machine, and the chain behind it draws on 1 raw resources: stone.
Production chain for 60 Wall / minute
| Item | Per minute | Machines | Machine |
|---|---|---|---|
| Stone brick | 300 | 16 | Furnace |
| Wall | 60 | 1 | Assembling machine |
Raw materials
| Resource | Per minute |
|---|---|
| Stone | 600 |
Machine counts are not rounded up. Add a little headroom in game — belt throughput and inserter speed usually mean you want 5-10% more than the exact number.
Wall recipe
| Machine | Crafting time | Output | Ingredients |
|---|---|---|---|
| Assembling machine | 0.5 s | 1 | Stone brick × 5 |
What the whole chain needs
60 walls per minute pulls in 1 intermediate product, and the whole tree comes to 17 machines across 2 machine types, fed by 1 raw resource. The table above already sums demand across every branch — if copper cable is used by two recipes, you see the total, not one of them.
Belt check: the busiest input here moves 600 per minute, which is 0.67 of a yellow belt's 900 per minute. Above 1.0 and you need a second belt (or a faster tier) before the machines themselves become the limit.
What uses wall
2 base-game recipes consume wall, sorted by how much each one takes:
- Military science pack — 2 per craft
- Gate — 1 per craft
What wall is made from
- Stone brick — 5 per craft
FAQ
How many assembling machines do I need for 60 walls per minute?
1 assembling machine. One at standard speed produces 60 per minute, so 60 ÷ that number is the count. The calculator above rounds nothing — add 5-10% headroom for belt and inserter losses in a real factory.
How much raw ore does wall take?
At 60/min the chain consumes 600 stone per minute. Those numbers are the theoretical minimum — mining productivity research and productivity modules both reduce them.
Is wall needed for science packs?
Yes — it goes directly into Military science pack. Open the science pack page to see the demand that lands on this recipe.
