Space Age expansion exclusive feature.
Increases the transport belt stack size by 1, up to 4. Only stack inserters, big mining drills and recyclers can create belt stacks.
Stack Inserter research introduces a baseline stack size of 2, doubling the throughput compared to non-Stack inserters. There are two levels of Transport Belt Capacity, each of which increases the stack size of Stack inserters by 1.
Transport belt capacity 2 also increases the hand size of non-bulk and non-stack inserters by 1.
Belt throughput
Belt stack size allows more items to stack on a belt, therefore increasing maximum belt throughput.
