Pulverizers are a type of mechanism in Vintage Story. It is used to crush ores and minerals that are too hard to be powdered in a quern.

Annotated pulverizer setup in Creative Mode. 1 is input, 2 is power, and 3 is output.
Protip:
As with querns and other automated machines, its output may despawn if the player is too far away from the pulverizer as it works if it is not deposited in a container.


Creation

Pulverizers are made out of a pulverizer frame, a pulverizer toggle, and two capped pounders.

Pulverizer frames hold the entire mechanism together. It is a two-block high structure. It takes a hopper input from the back and outputs items to the front. The pulverizer toggle must be placed within a pulverizer frame, and an axle should be connected to it in order to power the entire mechanism. Two pounders must then be attached to the frame, and capped.

Pulverizer Pounder







Pounder caps

Pounders must be capped with a metal cap. These can be smithed out of any bronze, iron, meteoric iron or steel. Both caps must be placed at the same time, and require a stack of 2 to place. Therefore, both pulverizer caps must always be made out of the same material. The tier of the metal used for the cap will determine what materials the pulverizer can process.

Usage

Pulverizers must be powered via a windmill or similar mechanism in order to function, and cannot be manually operated.

They can be manually loaded, by selecting the item to be pulverized in the hotbar and right-clicking the pulverizer frame. Pulverizers can process two items at a time. Inputs can also be automated using hoppers. Outputted items come out of the front of the pulverizer and can likewise be directed into a crate or chest using a hopper.

Pulverizers are used to crush quartz, bauxite, olivine or ilmenite for use in refractory bricks, or for crushing cinnabar or lapis lazuli to make dyes.
