Template:Machinery The Basic Transport Belt is the easiest and cheapest method of automatic item transportation. It is available from the beginning of the game, without any research. See Belt transport system for more general information about transport belts.

*Experimental value. See Transport belt experiments for more detailed information.
3 fast inserters per side will fill a basic transport belt to maximum density.
Stepping on a transport belt will convey the player in the direction of the transport belt, at a somewhat slow speed. The player can fight the movement, or run with it to speed up. This can be used for transportation over short distances faster than running.
Production Layouts
Iron gear wheels take the same amount of time to manufacture as transport belts, so one gear assembler can supply one belt assembler at full capacity, provided they are the same tier. An example is below.
