Speed module 2

Speed module 2 increases a machine's speed by 30%, its energy consumption by 60%, and decreases its ability to produce quality products by 1.5%. This means that, at the cost of energy, the machine produces more items per minute.

The machine will consume more energy per second, but will also work more quickly. Because energy costs are based on time rather than number of operations, some of the increased energy cost is offset by the reduced time per operation.

Machine speed and energy consumption are increased by 10% compared to tier 1 modules.

The quality bonus of any machine can never fall below 0, meaning speed modules cannot reduce the quality of a machine's output. The quality penalty only counteracts the effect of quality modules.

Speed modules also increase pollution, because it is directly proportional to the machine's power consumption, see pollution.
