More Information
Summary:A linear motor conveyor system comprising: a track having at least one guide rail and the track comprising a first magnetic element; and a moving element comprising a second magnetic element; wherein the moving element comprises at least one set of bearings having a profile for engaging a corresponding profile of the at least one guide rail; wherein a magnetic force is configured to control movement of the moving element in a direction of travel and the magnetic force is configured to support the moving element in a second direction, perpendicular to the direction of travel; and wherein the at least one guide rail supports the moving element in a third direction perpendicular to both the direction of travel and the second direction; wherein the at least one set of bearings has a shaped profile intended to support the moving element along the third direction.
