Does the Animation-Decoction-Fabrication Module loop work so that I can get X amount of 1/1s and +1 counters based on how much mana is open when activated?

Yes. Allow me to explain just so that everyone can understand.

Let’s start with a creature entering the battlefield, because that’s the most common place where the cycle will begin:

A creature entered the battlefield under your control, so Decoction Module triggers. When the trigger resolves, you get an energy counter.

You got an energy counter, so Fabricaton Module triggers and you choose a target for the trigger (A creature you control, maybe the creature that triggered step 1?). When the trigger resolves, if the target is still legal, you put a +1/+1 counter on that creature.

A +1/+1 counter was placed on a permanent you control, so Animation Module triggers. When the trigger resolve, you can pay 1. If you do, you create a Servo and go back to step 1.

Step 3 is normally the limiting step, but the chain could also break at step 2 if the target for Fabrication Module’s trigger becomes illegal. (And of course any of the triggers can be countered by something like Stifle.)

Bonus fact: In addition to forming a gameplay loop and having an awesome flavor text loop, the Module cycle also has looping panoramic art, as you can see below.
