R64 Duplicator (full technical name: Lx65_R64) is an elementary Herschel fanout conduit. It was discovered by Mitchell Riley on September 13, 2024.[1] It is a duplicator which acts as an R64 conduit and an Lx65 conduit. Both ghost Herschels mark the output locations.
Its recovery time is 46 ticks if both of the FNG's are ignored or if both Herschels enter a dependent conduit. Both FNG's can can hit and destroy each other if both are left unperturbed. If the FNG's are eaten, through the use of 7x9 eaters with one welded to a eater 5, its recovery time is 61 ticks.

The R64 duplicator is a completely stable Lx65 conduit, which means that conduits with unusual periods can use this duplicator to rotate and flip a Herschel left. It is also both compact and spartan, consisting of two blocks, one eater 1, and one loaf which acts as a transparent object.
