Overview
The curved conveyor tube is a pipe that can transfer items from two angled points. It is cheaper to build compared to the Conveyor Junction, but is limited to only 2 ports. For straight conveyors, the player must use Conveyor Junctions or Conveyor Tubes. For a full explanation on conveyors, see Conveyor Mechanics.
An interesting feature of the curved conveyor tube is that it also has indicator lights on it that inform the player of its status:
| Indicator Light Definitions | ||
|---|---|---|
| Color | Status | Comments |
|
Good Connection | This color informs that there is a successful connection between inventories. |
|
No Connection / No power | This tube is not connected to at least two inventories or is unpowered. |
| .... | Damaged / No Connection | This specific Conveyor Tube is damaged and needs to be repaired to function. |
- Note
- When not powered, the lights on the conveyor tube will turn red. However, this does not mean items cannot be transferred.
- Important Note
- It should be noted that the curved conveyor tube is only compatible with large conveyor ports.
Usage
Curved conveyor tubes can help the player if they need to go in different directions to reach the device they want to connect to on the other side. An example of its use is below:

Tips
- Compared to the Conveyor Junction it possesses less versatility (having only 2 conveyor sides) and is heavier, but in exchange it is less expensive in terms of Iron Ingots and stronger in terms of integrity since it's made up of sturdy Steel Plate unlike the Conveyor Junction which is primarily constructed out of weaker Interior Plates.
