I found my issue. I was only able to get the system to work by having pipe going in and out rather than straight into a chest. Additionally this item's drawback is that it does not send a request for an item to be sent to it, it requests for any chests on the pipe network to release what ever it has asked for. The problem with this item is that if I have two retrievers, one asking for 60 circuits and the other asking for 4, all the released circuits just head for the closest retriever asking for the material so only one receives the goods while the other factory stops working. I've since abandoned this design and am now focussing on multiple smaller factories with each factory it's own network, and then those finished products all forming one big network to complete the arrays.
