The Obsidian Factory is a way to produce large amounts of material without the need to spend a long time mining with a pick. It can produce cobblestone, stone, or obsidian depending on the ratio of water and lava contained in its internal storage tanks.
Rotarycraft Handbook Description[]
"The obsidian factory will mix piped-in water and lava to produce obsidian. Be careful; if the machine is left full of only lava too long, it will start to overheat and will eventually melt."

Tips & Tricks[]
- Unless a lot of obsidian is needed (such as for a structure out of obsidian or blast glass), this machine is most likely not required to be powered constantly. Using an Industrial Coil (and maybe a Gearbox) is a good power solution for it.
- Water and lava are pumped in sideways, opposite each other.
