	* Under normal circumstances the minimum amount of Pilers needed to create a 4 stack would be 3. But by utilizing belts of different speeds its possible to create a a 4 pile with just two. The idea is to run a higher speed belt into the first Piler, and belt out with a lower belt speed- for example MK2 Belt-> Piler -> MK1 Belt -> Piler. This has applications in a Fractionator Hydrogen feed, to use less expensive belt over large distances, or even to allow for slower sorters to transport much more cargo. Note that a downgrade from MK3 to MK2 will lower the total throughput, while a downgrade from MK2 to MK1 does not.		* Under normal circumstances the minimum amount of Pilers needed to create a 4 stack would be 3.

			* Automatic Pilers are ideal to boost the production of early [[Fractionator]] setups.
			* Piling can be used to either save on expensive high-tier Belts or to allow for layouts of much longer design.
			* Piling is also useful to make low-tier Sorters more useful, since they will move a whole stack instead of one item at a time, potentially quadrupling their throughput.
