I sounds as though your factory thinks the output hopper is full, it cannot create a crate, because it thinks it does not have space in the hopper for anything more. When I had this it was because I had not fully emptied my output hopper from an earlier run, so try taking out a few crates and starting up again, if that works, then take everything out and finish off the remaining 500 you need. You do not need to stop the factory to take items out, on the radial dial just select 'options', (do not select 'stop factory'), this will let you access the output hopper while the factory is still running.
Hope this fixes it for you.

I have tried this, and what happens is... When I remove some crates, and turn the factory on again, it will make.. say, if I had just made 500 of the 1000, then after i remove some crates and turn it on again, it will make 250 of the remaining 500, then take more crates out, and it will make 120 of the remaining 250... and it keeps making half of what it can make. But like I said earlier, I used to have the problem rarely, and the server reset would fix it, but it's not helping this time.

Sounds nasty, a bit drastic, but if you have entered a ticket on this (you have haven't you?) and got no useful advice (you didn't did you?) the I can only suggest redeeding and trying again. Otherwise if none of this helps, pull down the factory and put in a new one, it's only 50k worth of revenue you will lose, nothing compared to the hassle this kind of bug causes.
Unless anybody else has some better advice ?

I've been seeing this since pub 10 also. Redeeding my factory is not an option. It's damn annoying. Keeps telling me that it can't create more crates, when there's room for 20-30 more etc. Then keeps making less and less with each run. Changing schems seems to help some...

It's been happening to me too and I'm not an architect, I'm a tailor. It happened in a factory that was half full in the output hopper and to another factory of mine that was completely empty on the output hopper. Its random for me so I've put in a ticket for it but haven't heard back from anyone.

Sorry to tell you this, but it won't keep working.
I just placed a brand new Structure Factory last night. I put in a schematic for 1000 Small Structure Storage Modules. I only put the 2 ingredients in the input hopper and the output hopper was empty obviously. It died at 518 items made. There was still room for plenty of items in the output hopper.
This is driving me nuts. I'm actually in the process of dropping Architect now because demand has dropped off greatly since the FS quests came in the game, and it's obvious that grinding FS exp as an Architect is insane and not worth while. Also these bugs with factories along with having to restock my stupid vendors every 30 days has annoyed me too much.
I'm going to go mess around with BH a bit. If anyone on Gorath needs Power Unit Cores or Electronics GP Modules, I've got about 800 of each to spare...
