Low Sec PI Factory Question

I found a nice low sec area to explore PI.
It has a lava and plasma planet. I see the plasma has all the right things for robotics.

Right now i'm doing 32k units per hour of Base Metals. It's set up on 1 day and 4 hours. I've got the incoming raw material and outgoing metals routed through the set up.

Can a full robotics factory be done on a single planet? Can I set up more extractors to pull the other materials needed on the same planet? Or do i need to set up the lava planet to get the noble metals, etc?

Thanks!
Quinn

Can you make robotics on asingle plasma planet? Yes.

Should you? No. It's horribly inefficient and will require alot of time on your part to keep rerouting stuff as you can't run enough extractor and processors on a single planet to keep all 4 P0 extractor running and converting through to P3.

Edit: that is to say, you could do it with two extractor but would have to switch what they are extracting and the processors on aweekly basis.

It seems if I did try it, the command center would overload in power. :)
I will just use each planet for one item. Thanks for the info!
