Pump
By StarRupture Data Team · Patch-checked against in-game values
Pump is a resources entry with 1 craft route, mainly in Mega Press. It supports 6 downstream chains, including Condenser, Pressure Tank, and Rocket Engine. Use this page to compare recipe inputs, required buildings, and throughput before expanding your factory lines.
Crafting is available through 1 route with Mega Press as the primary workbench. It is consumed by 6 downstream chains such as Condenser, Pressure Tank, and Rocket Engine. Validate building count, power draw, and byproduct flow before scaling.

Production Notes
Primary throughput comes from Mega Press, with peak single-route output around 6 per minute. Common upstream feeds include Valve, Turbine, and Impeller, so buffer coverage and transport stability matter more than raw machine count.
Current demand spans 6 downstream chains, including Condenser, Pressure Tank, and Rocket Engine. Use calculator presets to align targets, supporting machines, and power budget before expanding new branches.
Optimization Checklist
Scale in stages: secure input flow first, lock throughput in Mega Press, then expand output modules. Expanding too early usually shifts bottlenecks from crafting speed to transport and grid stability.
Rate changes can ripple across multiple downstream products. Re-check ingredient buffers, machine uptime, and line utilization after each adjustment to catch hidden deficits early.
- Set a clear target rate before adding machines, then size input buffers to absorb short-term supply variance.
- Benchmark output in Mega Press and monitor power draw per additional machine.
- Track upstream dependencies (Valve, Turbine, and Impeller) and keep a fallback route for the highest-risk material.
- Validate downstream demand from Condenser, Pressure Tank, and Rocket Engine so expansion stays demand-driven.

Pump Planning FAQ
How do you make Pump in StarRupture?
Pump is produced through 1 recipe, with Mega Press acting as the main production building in this dataset. Start from the listed inputs, confirm per-minute throughput, then open the calculator preset before scaling the chain.
What is Pump used for in StarRupture?
Pump currently feeds 6 downstream recipes, including Condenser, Pressure Tank, and Rocket Engine. Review those outputs before raising target throughput so demand stays aligned with production.
What should you check before scaling Pump?
Validate input flow from Valve, Turbine, and Impeller, confirm machine uptime, and compare expected versus actual output before duplicating the line. Stable buffers matter more than raw machine count when this item feeds larger chains.
