title: Yield Addon
id: oritech:machine_yield_addon
type: block
---

The Yield Addon increases the resource output of certain industrial
processes.
It is primarily used with automated mining and specialized
reconstruction machines.

Its effects depend on the machine it is attached to:
- **[Fragment Forge](@oritech:fragment_forge_block)**: Doubles the amount
of byproducts produced during ore processing. Only one yield addon can be used here.
- **[Block Destroyer](@oritech:destroyer_block)** and
**[Enderic Laser](@oritech:laser_arm_block)**: Increases the resource yield
when breaking blocks (Fortune effect). Up to 3 yield addons can be installed.

**Maximizing Yield**

While multiple yield addons can be installed, using three modules
reaches the effective maximum for the Fortune effect on mining machines.
Adding more than three will not further increase the yield for block
breaking.
