2 chambers to 5 presses (2:5)

2 chambers to 5 presses (2:5) makes 100 kg/min of moonstone and draws 110 kW. Here is the sand balance, what the published sources say, and what Foundry's solver builds for the same output.

Sand balance

2 chambers make 50 kg/min of sand at full speed (2 x 25). 5 presses use 50 kg/min (5 x 10). Supply and demand match exactly.

What the Foundry solver builds

Asked for 100 kg/min of moonstone, the solver sizes 2 Pressure Chambers and 5 Stone Presses, with 100 kg/min of dust, 110 kW and $8,120 in total (machines, solar panels and placeholder belts). It agrees with the published ratio.

The 1:1 dust to sand yield is displayed by two databases and not formally proven by the specifications.
