Automation is a pull-based system - you pull something out at the end, and the ingredients slowly percolate to the start. Can be used for dedicated setups, ie compressing and centrifuging air, oil desulfuring and mixing to max diesel, etc. Simple filtering possible with locked barrels. Smaller pipes are automatically given a longer distance. Item pipes route item to nearest-allowed-destination based on distance. Multi-pipes available with fluid filter covers allowing specific fluids into or out of each pipe. Fluid pipes try to divide flows evenly, but can suffer from backflow issues. Conveyors and pumps pull or push items/fluids, with rates increasing by tier. Buggy with certain containers like drawers, may pull items even if the hopper is full. Output direction can be adjusted using GT wrench. Can be placed beneath steam machines to pull contents. Chests or other storage can be placed on top to extend buffer size. 11 Applied_Energistics_2 (link to comprehensive guide).9 Open Computers (link to comprehensive guide).

Usually, this strategy is used for creating bulk items (like Clear Glass, ingots, or other building blocks). This system is faster, though there is a little more down-time in your clicks, and you still have to keep watching the output. If you instead put the faucet above a Casting Channel that is connected to at least one other channel, and then put multiple outputs(Basins or Tables) below those channels, the faucet will not stop flowing so long as you are collecting the material as fast as the faucet is providing it. Usually, you right-click Faucet, wait to fill, wait to cool, take item, and right-click faucet again because the Faucet automatically stops when it can't go anywhere. There are ways to take advantage of specific behaviors of this item. Useful for cutting off outputs your not using at that moment. Right-click on the side of the hit-box to change the connection in that direction. You must put a faucet against the input block (taking from a tank or a drain) and above the casting channel. However, you can't take liquid out of something using a channel. Horizontally speaking, the Casting Channel will flow into some other blocks (such as tanks and drains). This needs more testing on channel setups more complicated than a 2x2 square. If there is no exit point, the fluid will flow in a circle rectangle indefinitely. So if you have fluid stuck on the opposite end of the channel, you can take more channels and lead the fluid back to the start. However, this works somewhat similarly to the infinite stair optical illusion. When flowing horizontally (no chance to drain downward), the fluid will try to flow away from the point where it was introduced to the channel.

When the input is greater than the output the liquid will still be transferred down and will not flow to the next block unless the output is full or not valid (for example filled with another liquid). This can be used to filter the liquids into Seared Tanks, or any other type of tank. The Casting Channel is very realistic, as it prioritizes the option for the liquid to go down.
