Hello everybody,
Is there any good way to pull items out of the chest VERY FAST (should hold 4 quarries running full speed at least) without filters (without redpower 2)? Without electrical engines please.
 
You can use either AE Import Buses/Wooden pipes and if you need to extract items faster you can just add the buses/pipes to more sides.

Are you moving it through a distance like an enderchest into a giant storage room? If so, use item tesseracts. Item goes in and automatically goes out the other, no clogging up an inventory. AE is also very good at it with Import Buses.

Yea Mikey is right AE Is probs the best option for fastest and i think its the least laggiest since it dosent show the items in the pipes

Item tesseracts would be the best thing for quarries, they can handle a ridiculous amount of throughput. If you really want to use chests (I'm assuming ender chests), then AE will keep up if you put a few import buses on the chest, 1 per quarry should do
 
If it's still pre-AE or you simply don't want to use it you can use MFR Ejectors which are the exact same as filters. They pull an item at each redstone pulse and you can use an MFR rednet controller to make a timer or a computercraft computer with the following startup code:

Code: 
while true do
   redstone.setOutput("bottom", true)
   sleep(0.01)
   redstone.setOutput("bottom", false)
   sleep(0.01)
   end

That code assumes the computer is on top of the ejector. Change the bottom to top, right, left, back, or front depending on placement of the computer.

I had built a frame mining machine in my old world. It had 32 mining wells. They all fed into their own enderchest that linked back to my base. I had every side connected to ae import buses, 6. That thing kept up rather will, never over filled it.
 
If you are dealing with the output if 4 quarries, I assume that we are talking enderchests (otherwise you would need a specialised setup and could use pipes instead.

Also, assuming that you are against tesseracts (and other solutions mentioned) for some reason.

I don't think that there is anything in the new packs to compete with a filter on 0.2. However, you can make as many enderchests as you like, and attach as many slow pulling systems as you like.
 
If it is a short distance, a strong stone golem can transfer about half a stack per second. You can have as many as you want. If they don't need to move you can force them all into a 1x1 hole.
 
Applied energistics Precision Import Buses, and set it up to pull stacks at a time. It will go almost instantly. Just hook it up to an ender chest and wire it to your network and you'll be in good shape.
 
Quarry can output items to an item tesseract.
Hook up 1 receiving tesseract to a ME interface and items will instantly be put into your ME network.

Pros:
  • Extendable (can easily add more quarries)
  • Instant item transfer
  • No redstone signals
  • No gates
Cons:
  • Every item transferred into your ME network will consume some power
 
Infinitubes is a mod that isn't in any of the packs but if you get it that does instant item transfer too. It needs power if it is moving blocks through tubes but it goes very fast and it pulls from inventories without needing a redstone signal. If you don't need to transfer stuff a long way then the the teleposer will not use power and it will act like translocators.

Showing items in the pipes isn't very costly. The Item Pipes use the least CPU and bandwidth (rendering the items is trivial), of all the pipes.
