Belt balancers explained
A splitter divides a belt into up to three outputs, and a merger joins up to three belts into one. Balancers combine them so that every output belt carries the same rate. With one input, output counts built from twos and threes need only splitters; for other counts, extra outputs loop back into the input.
A manifold is the compact alternative: one belt passes a row of splitters, each feeding one machine. It fills machines one after another and reaches full speed only once the belt has backed up. The manifold view shows both the start-up and the steady state.

Frequently asked questions
What is a belt balancer in Satisfactory?
A belt balancer is a group of splitters and mergers that divides one or more input belts into equal output belts. It keeps every machine in a line supplied evenly.
How do you split a belt into an uneven number of outputs?
Splitters divide into two or three outputs. For other counts, the balancer splits into the next number built from 2 and 3 and loops the extra outputs back to the input with a merger.
What is the difference between a balancer and a manifold?
A manifold feeds machines one after another from a single belt. It is compact but takes time to fill up. A balancer splits the flow evenly from the start but needs more space.
Can I share a balancer design?
Yes. The page link contains every setting, so copying it shares the exact design.
