Abstract: A drive module for a linear transport system comprises a housing and a stator, wherein a conveying device of the linear transport system with a magnet arrangement can be arranged on the housing. The stator is arranged in the housing, wherein the stator comprises at least one coil arrangement having at least one coil with at least one stator tooth. The coil arrangement is designed to switchably provide a magnetic traveling field, wherein the magnetic traveling field exits from the coil arrangement at the end faces and passes through the housing shells in order to enter into operative connection with the magnet arrangement of the conveying device of the linear transport system on the outer side of the housing for the purpose of forming a magnetic coupling.

Abstract: A conveying device for a linear transport system, wherein the conveying device comprises at least one rolling unit and a carrier unit, wherein the carrier unit is of U-shaped configuration and has an outer side and an inner side, wherein the inner side bounds a receiving space for receiving a running rail of the linear transport system, wherein the rolling unit is arranged in the receiving space in a manner spaced apart from the inner side, wherein the inner side and/or the outer side are/is substantially free from undercuts and/or corners and/or bumps, and/or wherein the inner side and/or the outer side are/is of substantially smooth configuration.

Abstract: A system and method for defined aligning of an object. A first object with a first alignment is fed. The first alignment is detected and transmitted to a control device. The control device determines a first rotation angle on the basis of the first alignment and a predefined first alignment, and a speed profile of a first translational movement for a first rotor with a differential speed between the guiding device and the first rotor on the basis of the first rotation angle and a predefined speed of the guiding device. The control device controls the first rotor in the first translational movement along the aligning zone on the basis of the determined speed profile, and the first rotor, in interaction with the guiding device, turns the first object to the first predefined alignment in a first rotation about the first rotation angle on the basis of the differential speed.
