From this and also doing the same with a modified 4:4 balancer made to do 3:3, I conjecture this: any fully throughput unlimited balancer of n:n belts has at least n connectors between nodes in a graph, as I represented them, or splitters in the game, where each connecting section has 1/n belts from each input ...I don't have one.

For example if the output belt goes from left-to-right, the input full-belts will bias the left side of the belt. This combiner solves the bias by splitting each side of the ...The general idea is to have half of the incoming items switch lanes, then balance the lane-switched items with the un-switched items.

TL;DR, standard balancers are enough inside a well designed factory, and outposts will always be messy.Imagine the following: 4 belt in, 2 spliter side by side, one spliter taking one output of each spliter then one spliter on each output. It is a balancer, as it will balance input equally among the 4 output belt, but the overall throuput is limited by the middle spliter, so you won't output 4 full belt.

Everything was named and categorized in such a way ...This requires output throughput to at least match input throughput distributed evenly across right and left belts. Circuits detect if there is a backup, which causes the balancing mechanics to fail. If one of the balancers fails, all four inputs are halted until the balancers are cleared. At the end is a normal 4 belt balancer. Blueprint Here. 4.Changelog. 128-128 is now 22 tiles shorter. 64-64 now uses belt weaving and is now 7 tiles shorter.

You've got two unnecessary underground belts in the first 4-to-4 balancer section (compare against my picture below), which are bypassing the pair of output splitters, possibly keeping the balancer from fully doing its job.This problem is solved by ultimate (not unlimited) balancers, that balance everything that can be balanced (4 4 4 -0-, 5 5 -2- -0-, 6 6 -0- -0-, etc.), but they introduce a new geometrical issue (they are huge). TL;DR, standard balancers are enough inside a well designed factory, and outposts will always be messy.Balancers often do not fulfill the second condition because of internal bottlenecks. The gif on the right shows a 4 → 4 balancer being fed by two belts, but only outputting one belt which means that its throughput in that arrangement is 50%. The bottleneck in this balancer is that the two middle belts only get input from one splitter.Here is a perfect count input/output balanced 4 tile wide 4-4 lane balancer. The general idea is to have half of the incoming items switch lanes, then balance the lane-switched items with the un-switched items.

Some odd balancers can have problems like that, especially with unbalanced inputs. If your top and bottom belts are ...Works for 1-2 inputs and 1-2 outputs and consumes all input lanes equally.

This should do the trick. Fair warning - due to internal splitter mechanics, the wider the balancer, the more likely that you'll see variations in how the stuff is pulled, depending on which lanes are outputting. But this is about at good as it gets without ...Your balancer is also a 50% minimum throughput balancer, just like the wiki's. Try to feed it compressed belts from only the left 4 belts, it will only output 2 compressed belts worth. It will evenly distribute those 2 belts worth, though. Again, putting another 50% 8x8 infront of your reducer/lane-balancer, will bring it up to 100%.The balancers DaleStan posted are input balanced. The one on the right is the smallest 1-to-1 lane balancer known and the result of years of community research about belt and lane balancing - probably the first and most discussed topic about Factorio of all time, because that's the first non trivial topic that pops up for every player.Mar 9, 2021 · Copy of Raynquist's Fall 2020 belt balancer collection, organized into nested blueprint books by number of input belts.

If I was building this I would first try to draw evenly from each lane so that balancing is less necessary. Then I would balance the 16 lane inputs into 4 balancers each 4In a 1-to-2 balancer, 100 iron goes in, each output belts receives 50 iron. Keep in mind there's a difference between lane balancers (each belt has two lanes) and belt balancers. A standard belt balancer is lane blind, it won't redistribute the lanes or mix them in any way. The purpose of a lane balancer is to balance the sides of a belt.The 2-4 graph is basically the graph of a 4-4 throughput-unlimiter, minus a couple of priorities. So it's a more complicated graph than the old 2-4, yet with a smaller footprint. Obviously that's always been possible, but I think this is the first time I've seen it happen.

Make a 4-to-4 balancer. split lane 5 into 4 lanes. This requires just 3 splitters. Tie the 4 quarter-full lanes from the lane 5 split into each of the 4 lanes output from the 4-to-4 balancer. That will give you 4 output lanes that all have the same thing in ...Optimized 6-4 balancer.

Community-run subreddit for the game Factorio made by Wube ...The throughput is relative to the output in this case (always relative to the smaller n of belts in/out). 100% throughput for a 9:4 balancer is 4 belts out, 4 belts in. So, for certain configurations of blocked in and output belts, you will only get about 3 belts of output instead of 4, even if you input more than 3 belts.you dont need to do it this way. What you should instead do, is have the smaller lanes feed into the larger lanes; 45 items per second is 45 per second. Combine the laners first then do a smaller balancer thats more appropriate. This will balance 10 -> 4.Balancers in factorio are devices that evenly distribute from inputs to outputs. The 4-4 throughput unlimited balancer is an execelent balancer. This can be useful for unloading/loading trains, when having one wagon backup can sometimes cause throughput problems.

If you ran 2 full belts in and 2 empty, the output would be 4 half belts. This reminds me of Yennefer from Witcher . Not smaller; shorter.I'm not super good at simulating them in my mind, but it looks like it's not a true balancer. e.g. putting a full belt into input number 5 won't output an even 1/4 belt on each output; if I'm reading it right it would output 1/16 belt onThey are different things. We are talking about a 8x8 lane balancer here, not a 4x4 belt balancer with some lane switching. If it makes it easier to visualise: Imagine an 8x8 belt balancer, with 4 bottom output belts backed up, and on the input only every other belt supplies a full belt of items.
