  • the control load is distributed by the movement command generator 41 in the upper layer and the many drive modules 42 in the lower layer, the number of movers 3 in the linear transport system 1 can be easily increased. , and the transfer efficiency of the linear transfer system 1 can be improved.
  • the linear transport system that drives the mover based on the magnetic force between the permanent magnet provided on the mover and the electromagnet provided on the stator was exemplified. It can be applied to any drive based on fluids).
  • each device described in the embodiments can be realized by hardware resources or software resources, or by cooperation between hardware resources and software resources.
  • Processors, ROMs, RAMs, and other LSIs can be used as hardware resources.
  • Programs such as operating systems and applications can be used as software resources.
  • the present invention relates to a driving device and the like that moves a mover along a track.
