The Magmatic Engine is an Engine added from Thermal Expansion. It consumes Lava to produce Minecraft Joules. When right-clicked, its current GUI displays a slot for the addition of lava. However, the slot has recently been rendered completely useless. Instead, to add lava, right-click on the Magmatic Engine while holding a Lava Bucket/Cell/Capsule/etc. One bucket of lava will produce approximately 17,900MJ.

Power Minimum / Maximum: 0.4 MJ/T / 4.0 MJ/T

The engine can easily overheat. If the engine overheats, it will shut down and sneak-right clicking on it with a Crescent Hammer or OmniWrench can make it restart. To avoid overheating, use Redstone Energy Conduits instead of Conductive Pipes.

It was replaced by the Magmatic Dynamo in Thermal Expansion.

Alternatives[edit]

The Magmatic Engine overheats easily and will be broken until you repair it. This makes it unstable. You can use a Geothermal Generator with an Electrical Engine instead. When the Electrical Engine overheats, it will cause it to cool down and restart automatically. This is useful for e.g. a Nether Lava Pump. However, this problem is avoided entirely when using a Redstone Energy Conduit.
