Mechanisms
Power
In TFC+, power supplied by mechanical systems can be used to automate various machines such as the Grindstone and Bellows. Power is produced by machines such as the Waterwheel. The power can then be transmitted through a system of Axles and Gears, and controlled by Axle Couples to reach their destinations.
Axles
The two main components of mechanical systems are Axles and Axle Bearings.

Axle Couples can be used to control the mechanism system. Axle Couples only transmit mechanical power when activated by a redstone signal.
Waterwheels
Waterwheels produce power from falling water. The hub of the waterwheel needs to be mounted between two axles, with the axle bearings two blocks away from falling water. The speed of the waterwheel does not matter - instead, the distance that the water falls determines power.
