Subcore ripscanner
A pod with thousands of tissue probe injectors and an ultra-high-power vaporizing brain scanner. Once a person is inserted, the device will insert the probes into their body through the skin while the ripscanner chews through the brain, reading the reflected radiation and destroying the brain in the process. Ripscanning the mind generates a neuro-psychic pattern that the scanner can analog-transfer to a new high-tier mechanoid subcore.
Subcores are mechanoid brains and producing any mechanoid requires one. High-tier subcores produced by this ripscanner can only power high-tier mechanoids.

The subcore ripscanner is a building added by the Biotech DLC that allows for the creation of high subcores by ripscanning human pawns.
Acquisition
Subcore ripscanner can be constructed once the High mechtech research project has been completed. They require 200 Steel, 150 Plasteel, 6 Components, 1,200 ticks (20 secs) of work, and a Construction skill of 6.
Summary
The subcore ripscanner takes 150 W of power. Its only purpose is to form a high subcore, an ingredient used for the gestation of the following mechanoids:

A high subcore requires 50 steel and 4 components to create. Then, a human must sit in the scanner for 7,500 ticks (2.08 mins). The human then dies unless some AI storyteller settings are set and you use a colonist.
