Upgrades are essential to machines if you wish to improve them. Currently there are six upgrades:
A Mekanism machine upgrade to make them process items faster, each Mekanism machine can store 8 of these upgrades.
HINT: Upgrade your power setup before upgrading your machines, as the power usage per tick begins to escalate with every speed upgrade applied, requiring more power to complete a single machine process.
HINT: (For machines that use gasses) Machines consume gasses based on how long they are running. that means using speed upgrades will increase the gas efficiency.
Heres a table of the various parameters regarding upgrades:

---|---|---|---|---|---|
0 | 1x | 200 ticks | 100% | 50 J/t | 10,000 J |
1 | 1.33x | 149 ticks | 134.2% | 88 J/t | 13,112 J |
