Transportbänder werden benötigt, um Eisenerz von einer Förderstelle zu einem Belader zu transportieren, welcher damit den Hochofen befüllt.

Ein Transportnetzwerk besteht aus

• Förderband System, zusammengestellt aus
  • Transportbändern, Verteilern und Unterirdischen Transportbändern,
• Beladern and
• Kisten

It includes also the concept Storage, which is used for example in Railway network/Train station and there is a high relation to the Logistic network.

The Belt transport system is used to direct and control the flow of items around your factory. They are one of the core elements in Factorio! Inserters place or remove items from belts, chests and production facilities. Chests can be used to store completed items or as a buffer in your production line.

In most of the cases inserters must be used to place or remove things from the transport belts. However Mining drills place items they produce directly on to the transport belt - as you can see in the example on the right.

Band-Transportsysteme

Band-Transportsysteme umfassen die drei unterschiedlichen Arten

• Förderbänder ,
• Untergrund Förderbänder und
• Weichen,

die nur durch ihre Geschwindigkeit unterschieden werden:

Speed ( Felder/Sekunde)	Förderbänder	Untergrund Förderbänder	Weichen	Forschungsstufe
~1.8	File:Basic-transport-belt.png Einfaches Förderband	File:Basic-transport-belt-to-ground.png Einfaches Untergrund Förderband	File:Basic-splitter.png Einfache Weiche	keine
~3.6	File:Fast-transport-belt.png Schnelles Förderband	File:Fast-transport-belt-to-ground.png Schnelles Untergrund Förderband	File:Fast-splitter.png Schnelle Weiche	Logistik 2
~5.6	File:Express-transport-belt.png Express Förderband	File:Express-transport-belt-to-ground.png Express Untergrund Förderband	File:Express-splitter.png Express Weiche	Logistik 3

Belader

Belader bei der Arbeit

Inserters will always place items on the far side of a belt, and will prefer to take items from the closest side.

Gegenstand	Maximale Leistung	Beschreibung
File:Burner-inserter.png Befeuerter Greifarm	180 W (burner)	Most basic inserter, needs burning fuel.
Greifarm	13 W	Basic electric inserter.
File:Long-handed-inserter.png Long handed inserter	18 W	Basic inserter able to grab Items from 2 tiles distance.
File:Fast-inserter.png Schneller Greifarm	30 W	Inserter working at double speed.
Smart inserter	40 W	Inserter able to connect to Circuit network and specify work conditions.

Chests

File:Transport-Belt-Storage.jpg

Inserters storing extra iron ore in wooden chests.

Chests are used to store items. Chests contain stacks, which compress the inserted items (in computer memory and so also in the game):

Item	Max stacks	Description
File:Wooden-chest.png Holzkiste	16	Kiste.
File:Iron-chest.png Eisenkiste	32	Verbesserte Kiste.
File:Steel-chest.png Stahlkiste	48	Basic chest with maximum capacity of 48 stacks.
Smart chest	48	Connectable to Circuit network.
File:Provider-chest.png Anbieterkiste	48	Used for Logistic network, Circuit network.
File:Storage-chest.png Lagerkiste	48	Used for Logistic network, Circuit network.
File:Requester-chest.png Anforderungskiste	48	Used for Logistic network, Circuit network.

Other entities with stacks

As said, stacks are needed to store items. Entities with stacks are

• Furnaces,
• Assemblies or even the
• Vehicle/Car or Vehicle/Train but also
• Gun turrets
• Robots and Inserters (but only very small)
• your Inventory (plus the quick bar, the weapon bar and what you have in hand).

Storage

Storage is a concept, about storing enormous masses of items. Some of the concepts work only together with Logistic network. Most used for:

• Railway network/Train station
• Storage/Production buffer
