P.S. Sorry for my English. This is not my main language.
I'm just asking a stupid question here but do those assemblers have a power cable on the back, busses do not transfer power, nor do pointed interfaces. We had to work around work around this when my team was designing our crafting bank arrays on Enigmatica 2 expert.
There appears to be an issue how the dynamic ticking behaves in this particular case.
In general using import buses on assemblers is not ideal as assemblers try to push out their result to an adjacent inventory. If they are not able, they won't go to sleep and try to constantly eject it every tick. So in this case they have to wait for the import bus to empty them before they also will be able to accept new ingredients. So it certainly won't be ideal in terms of throughput. Also as the export bus potentially has to wait on the import bus it might decide to slow down itself, which in return slows down the assembler and potentially the import bus. So it can easily oscillate within a speed range.
At some point the network simply decides the assemblers are more important than the buses as assemblers can tick every tick while buses tick only every 5 ticks (by default). Once that happens it somehow messes up the priority for the ticking order and stops after processing the assemblers.

The Energy comes from the cable directly on top of the top most molecular assembler. The power is then transfered directly through the assemblers.
