U-shape Conveyor is the way to solve logistical tasks of Loose Products from the mid-stage of the game. It is used to transport items between buildings. It can also connect U-shape Balancer and U-shape Sorter for advanced dividing items.

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.
