Turbo transport belt

The Turbo transport belt is an item used to place the Turbo transport belt entity, a high-speed transport belt in the game. It provides a maximum throughput of 60 items per game-second, a belt speed of 7.5 tiles per game-second, and supports a maximum density of 8 items per tile. Research named Turbo transport belt is required to unlock the item for crafting.

Turbo transport belt items are carried in the player's inventory and placed into the world to create the corresponding belt entity that moves items along the logistic network of conveyor belts. The listed throughput and speed are the game mechanics values used by the transport belt entity while moving and feeding items and should be interpreted together with the game's belt physics for stacking, merging, and throughput calculations.

• The belt's speed is 7.5 tiles per game-second and its throughput is 60 items per game-second; maximum density on a tile is 8 items.
• The belt requires the Turbo transport belt research to be enabled before the item can be crafted or used.
• Detailed interactions (insertion, splitting, underground and splitter behavior) follow the standard transport belt mechanics and should be consulted in the Physics of Transport Belts documentation for precise timing and spacing considerations.
• Use Turbo transport belts where high-volume, high-speed item movement is required; match production and feeder rates to avoid overbuilding or wasted resources.

Crafting, exact recipe, prototype build requirements, and entity-specific placement interactions (such as how it interfaces with underground belts, splitters, or inserters) follow the game's item and entity definitions and are governed by the same transport belt rules as other belt tiers. For precise timing, throughput stacking, and design patterns, consult the detailed belt physics reference.
