Manufacturing Hub
Author: Calen
v3.1.1
The Manufacturing Hub is my centralized complex for (almost) all things created by assembly plants and their derivatives - vehicles, research, and maintenance specifically. Not included is Uranium Rod production, which is part of my Nuclear Power Station; Medical Supplies, which is part of my Food & Drug Center; and Solar Panels, which I don't currently use. While all my complexes (Oil Refinery, Unified Foundry, Food & Drug Center, & Nuclear Power Station) are built in stages, the Manufacturing Hub has the most at 15.
Stages of the Manufacturing Hub:

A brief note on storage: While storage is used for accumulating goods, I also like to think of it as a buffer against "the bad times". However, in an effort to really condense the layout of the hub as much as possible, I have shrunk the size and use of egress storage and removed internal storage entirely. I have only had one full playthrough with this new design, but it seems to work well. I do miss my massive amounts of electronics storage though. I am pondering reincorporating it into the design at a later date. If you decide to use the hub, let me know your thoughts/experience with the reduced storage in the comments.
Tips
- Start with constructing the transport and storage first, then construct the buildings as able/needed.
- Research Maintenance Depot II as soon as you can so you can upgrade the starting depots.
- Add Maintenance Depots as needed - a maximum of 5 Maintenance Depots and 4 Maintenance II Depots.
- To gain Lab Equipment needed for constructing/upgrading the Research Labs, remove them from the transports (trashcan icon).
- Perform conversion to steel Mechanical Parts as soon as possible.
- Perform upgrades as soon as possible.
Note: Please excuse the blocked connections at the maintenance depots in stage 1, they will go away once you upgrade them.

Otherwise amazing. I love how it is in stages by your tech level. BRAVO Best all in one stuff ever
What happened to the transport 'around back' for settlement needs (household goods, etc.) and diesel? I seemed to have lost it when i updated blueprint.
Calen's blueprints are more efficient, more compact and optimised for COI Update 2.
Quite simply, they are the best blueprints available.
Grandmaster of blueprints indeed!
P.S. Copy/paste link above is v.3.0.1 not v.3.0.2.
They do now! I would update both the Unified Foundry and Manufacturing Hub blueprints.
v3.1.1 - Corrected Hub Transport - Straight blueprint
v3.1.0 - Updated transport to form backbone of new Transport System.
v3.0.3 - Updated ingress transport to fix concrete/rubber conveyors.
v3.0.2 - Updated a couple belt paths.
v3.0.1 - Added installation image links for each stage, and added complete build blueprint.
Its working fine
