Cargo	Loose products
Throughput	60 / 60
Designation	Transports
Variants	U-shape Conveyor II U-shape Conveyor III

U-shape Conveyor is a better way to solve logistical tasks for Loose Products after leaving the beginning stage of the game. It is used to transport items between buildings automatically, and continuously, without using vehicles. It can connect to U-shape Balancer and U-shape Sorter.

The Conveyor requires Electricity, and its amount depends on the length of the Conveyor segment. The required electricity is not directly proportional to the length, but to the length to the power of roughly 0.7.
