Made a huge mostly-automated complex wherein coal iron and copper are handled automatically. I also have figured out some basic usage of the smart inserters and smart chests to create a scheme where one conveyor belt is able to feed 2 materials in the same lane to supply my research complex with raw materials that are automatically manufactured into the colored potions.
The system I used to do that though could actually be expanded to carry more than 2 resources on a single belt without issue, I probably will attempt this on my next save file and put coal, fuel blocks, iron ore, and copper ore all on the same belt with smart inserters and queue chests configured to separate them again on the fly.
Don't be afraid to have multible belts carrying the same resource
This one of my older factories
