Abstract: In a method for operating a technical plant, which includes a work area for producing ready-to-ship products from delivered goods and a plurality of load carriers, each including a control, a drive connected to the control, and a communication interface, for transporting goods and for transporting products, goods are delivered to the technical plant, delivered goods are transported into the work area by the load carriers, products are produced in the work area from the goods transported into the work area, produced products are transported out of the work area by the load carriers, and products transported out of the work area are shipped out from the technical plant. A technical plant, which includes a work area for producing ready-to-ship products made from delivered goods, is operable using the method.

Abstract: In a transport system and method for operating a transport system the transport system includes a first mobile component and a second mobile component as well as a transport rack. Bearing rollers for moving the transport rack on a driving surface are disposed on the transport rack, in particular, the mobile component is drivable on the driving surface. Each mobile component has a linear axle and a control as well as wheels driven by an electric motor. The first mobile component is able to drive underneath the transport rack in a first region of the transport rack, and the second mobile component is able to drive underneath the transport rack in another, i.e. second, region of the transport rack. The transport rack is able to be raised by extending the linear axles of the mobile components, in particular is able to be raised in such a way that the bearing rollers of the transport rack lose physical contact with the driving surface.
