Bronze Ingot
Bronze Ingot is the cheapest of the four Ala Industrial alloys: three copper ingots plus one tin ingot smelt into two bronze ingots.
Description
There is no bronze ore anywhere in the world, and a vanilla furnace will not smelt the alloy either — the Alloy Smelter is the single source. Bronze Ingot currently has exactly one consumer: two ingots go into upgrading an Electric Chainsaw to its diamond-tipped version, together with three Diamond Dust and one Gold Gear, while plates, tools and components made of alloys are planned for later releases. The recipe reads its inputs through the common tags c:ingots/copper and c:ingots/tin, so copper or tin from another mod is accepted just like the mod's own metal, and the finished Bronze Ingot carries the c:ingots/bronze tag for cross-mod automation.

How to Get Bronze Ingots in Minecraft
-
1
Build and power an Alloy Smelter
Craft an Alloy Smelter and connect it to a generator with cables — while alloying, the machine draws 8 EU per tick.
-
2
Load three copper ingots and one tin ingot
Drop three copper ingots and one tin ingot into any input slots of the Alloy Smelter; the slot order does not matter.
-
3
Wait out the 150-tick cycle
The Alloy Smelter spends 1200 EU over 150 ticks (about 7.5 seconds), then places two bronze ingots in its output slot.
-
4
Collect two ingots per run
Four ingots go in and two come out, so every cycle halves your metal stock — the cost of turning ore into alloy.
-
5
Stockpile for alloy recipes
Keep the smelter fed and bank bronze early: at 600 EU per ingot it is the cheapest of the four alloys to put into steady production, and more alloy recipes are coming.
A vanilla furnace or blast furnace cannot make bronze, and no bronze ore generates in the world — the Alloy Smelter is the only source.

Frequently asked questions
Can you craft a Bronze Ingot at a crafting table?
No. Bronze is a machine alloy: the only recipe is the Alloy Smelter, which turns three copper ingots and one tin ingot into two bronze ingots for 1200 EU.
Is there bronze ore in the world?
No. Bronze never generates as ore — the alloy exists only inside an Alloy Smelter that you feed with copper and tin yourself.
What is the Bronze Ingot used for?
Right now one recipe consumes it: upgrading an Electric Chainsaw to the diamond-tipped version costs two bronze ingots, three Diamond Dust and one Gold Gear. Alloy plates, tools and components are planned for later releases.
Does copper from other mods work in the recipe?
Yes. The Alloy Smelter reads its inputs through the common tags c:ingots/copper and c:ingots/tin, so ingots from other mods work exactly like the mod's own.
Is the Bronze Ingot renewable?
No. Copper and tin both come from finite ores, and each alloying cycle shrinks four ingots of ore metal into two bronze ingots.
Does the Bronze Ingot exist on Bedrock Edition?
No. Ala Industrial is a Java Edition mod for Minecraft 26.2 that runs on both Fabric and NeoForge; there is no Bedrock version of the alloy.
