A mechband dish is a building added by the Biotech DLC that allows a mechanitor to summon the apocriton.

Acquisition

Mechband dishes can be constructed once the High mechtech research project has been completed. Each requires ? Steel 75 Steel, Plasteel 25 Plasteel, Advanced component 2 Advanced components and 8,000 ticks (2.22 mins) of work.

Summary

A mechband dish can be activated by a mechanitor to summon the hostile apocriton, which will drop a nano structuring chip when defeated. This destroys the dish, turning it into 2-4 steel slag chunks.

It cannot be used in the time between another mechanoid boss being summoned and that boss arriving. In addition, there is a 2 day cooldown between summoning any mech boss.
