Universal Tower Smelting

This is the most compact desing in regards of smelting pretty much everything that I could come up with. The total output is of course dependant on the level of your logistic station cargo stacking and the material you want to smelt. All you have to figure out is how many smelters can you put next to a specific belt. As an example blue belt can take 1800 items per minute (30/s). Plane smelter can make 150 iron per minute if its proliferated so thats 1800/150 = 12 smelters per 1 blue line (we have 4 to use) so 48 total. All proliferated.

It is also designed to be only 15 squares wide and to be symmetrical so you can put them next to each other like on the pictures.

Why no piler?
The only advantage the pilers give is in this situation is lowering the amount of towers we need. This design doesnt care about tower and energy usage in favour of smelters density. Using more towers gives us better smelter density, removes problems with throughput/lowers investment needed for drone speed to handle it (29k throughput with 4 stack piles) and simplifies the design.
