机械臂
< Transport network | zh
抓取臂是将物品从一处移动到另一处的一种装置，其作为自动化运作的其中重要一环并大量地使用。其形状就像一只机器人手臂，能够将物品从一个方位抓起，移动到相反的另一个方位放下。例如，我们使用其将物件从一个装置移动到另一个装置里，将物件在容器（例如箱子）或者传送带里放入或拿出。
抓取臂特性
Inserters will:
- Pick up Items off the Ground, off a Transport belt, or from any object that has storage space for stacks (including chests, furnaces and assembling machines)
- Place the item onto the ground, onto a transport belt, or into any object that has storage space for stacks.
Inserters act differently depending on what they are moving items to/into so as not to monopolize all of the items being picked up. This allows other machines and inserters on the same transport belt to pick up a share of the items.
抓取限制
Inserters will stop inserting items into certain buildings if they already have enough of that item. For example, if a boiler has 5 or more items of fuel in it, an inserter will not insert additional fuel. When the fuel drops below 5 items, the inserter will continue to insert more fuel, up to the limit of 5 items.
| Entity | Item type | Inserter limit | Comment |
|---|---|---|---|
| Boilers, Burner inserters, Furnaces | Fuel | 5 | Modders should avoid recipes for furnaces with fuel. |
| Gun turrets | Magazines | 10 | Since v0.8.4 |
| Assembling machines | Items needed for the recipe | Double the number of items needed in the recipe | |
| Furnaces | Items needed for the recipe | Double the number of items needed in the recipe | |
| Labs | Science packs | Double the number of items needed for one research point |
An inserter that takes items from an object containing stacks of items (such as a chest) can overfill the target building due to the Inserter item stack size. Overfilling can also happen if you use multiple inserters to insert items into the building.
抓取臂与传送带
Transport belts have two lanes on which items can travel. Inserters only place items onto one side of the belt. Which side they place it on depends on the orientation of the inserter and the belt, as described below. If you want to rearrange the items once they are on a belt see Transport_belts/Belt_lane#Changing_side_of_lane.
- Inserters will always place the item on the furthest lane.
- Inserters prefer taking items from the nearest lane.
- When the direction of the inserter and the belt are the same, the inserter will place items in the direction of their rotation. By default, this is the top for horizontal belts, or the left for vertical belts. When taking from a belt, this direction might change.
- The end of the belt places the items onto the next Tile. Therefore, an inserter placed just past the end of the belt will be able to pick up items coming off of the belt. The end of the belt should be placed just before the inserter, to prevent two items from getting left at the end of the belt. This makes an inserter actually also faster, cause the item doesn't move here and he needs not to rotate so much, as when the item comes along with the belt. This can be clearly seen in the picture: the taking inserter is faster than the putting, cause he needs not to rotate the full 180 degrees, like his left neighbor.
- Inserters can place items on
- All types of conveyor belts
- Underground belt entrances and exits
- Curves, however there is a high chance that the items will block
- Inserters cannot place items on splitters
- Inserters can pick up items from
- Splitters
- The first half of the conveyor belt
- Inserters have problems picking up items
- From fast belts, because the items are moving too quickly.
- From curves (Burner inserters can't pick from curves: http://www.factorioforums.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=23&t=5678 )
- From the entry or exit of an underground belt
强力用法
- Inserter Power Efficiency: Movements per energy and exact power usage numbers.
- Small Inserter Test: Comparison if energy usage per item.
- Inserters/Reduce power consumption
- Inserter heartbeats: In some situations it is not possible to calculate the needed power usage.

Fast inserter and smart inserter have the same speed.
旋转速度
Convention: 2π rad = 100% of a circle rotation = 1 turn (or one full rotation)
展开速度
The extension-speed is normally not visible (only when compared to other inserters), but there are measurable speed differences when taking - for example - from the near or the far side of a belt.
This effect is also important for Train stations, when unloading items from wagons, cause the inserters needs to stretch out to the center of a wagon, which is some tiles long and leads to visible slower speed.
移动与能量消耗
The energy usage is not dependend on the amount of rotation (or extension), it is depending if the inserter starts an action, which is like grabbing, moving, release and returning.
类型
| Item-type | Max power | Description |
