conveyor
Factory transport system
A conveyor is a mechanical system that moves materials or objects from one place to another, typically using a continuous belt, rollers, or chain.
The word almost always appears in the phrase conveyor belt, which has become a metaphor for any repetitive, assembly-line process: The job felt like being on a conveyor belt.
In industrial settings, conveyors transport everything from packages to coal to sushi.
