== Behavior ==
 
Transport belts (Conveyor belts) are used to transport [[Items]]. They don't need energy to do that, and this is one of the [[Mysteries of the Factorio World]], but like any other mystery in Factorio this has just gameplay-reasons (.
 
Belts can be imagined as "moving ground". Everything on a belt is moved in the belts direction.
 
Technically an item is a small box ([[collision box]]) and moving means, that the position of an item is constantly changed but the items are not allowed to overlap. A picture can show you, the movement better:

Here you can see the items moving upward [[Game tick|tick by tick]]. And when coming to the turn, they aren't rotated, but moved to the side.
 
== Belt Lanes ==
 
Because a belt is much broader than an item, a belt has two [[belt lanes|lanes]], that can be used for transporting.
