Description
Back in the mid 20th century electronics were not made from plastics but instead were made from glass and ceramic tubes. Vacuum tubes made in the USSR and Warsaw Pact were considered some of the finest in the world. Factory employs 100 workers and uses cement, steel, and chemicals to make electronic components.

This factory is exactly what I need in the country.
It is the most used factory in the electronic field.
Thank you for creating this factory.:steamhappy:

for full realism, I will add aluminum in the necessary goods, while copper has not been introduced

Hi, good building, but there is a glitch. One of factory connections appear to be in the air

Cement (Gravel + Coal) is the stand in for glass and ceramic.

To make a vacuum tube from raw material to finished product requires serial buildings.

Stone Quarry -> Gravel processor -> Cement Factory -> Tube Factory.

Should there be some gravel or quarried stone for the glass?

Thanks for this! Really like the old-school resource production alternatives! And yeah, vacuum tubes for most things have gone away to solid electronics, but they're still heavily used in guitar amplifiers and the music and recording industry in general.

Vacuum tubes are still used for some special applications. Professional grade amplifiers are still sometimes made with Vacuum tubes for their superior sound quality. Ceramic insulators are still used in high voltage application such as in power transformers and substations.

Does it ever become obsolete? I mean those things are not used today, are they?

Very nice idea. Much more realistic than plastics and steel.
But it should be better balanced. 5,5t input to produce 2,5t.
lesser input or more output. 5,5t input to 5 t output.
