Abstract: An apparatus for conveying a substrate, wherein the apparatus comprises a rail-like track section having a longitudinal extension and a moving unit, which is configured to perform a movement relative to the track section along the longitudinal extension of the track section, wherein the track section and the moving unit are configured to interact such that the movement of the moving unit is effected by magnetic interaction between the track section and the moving unit, and wherein the moving unit comprises a holding unit which is configured to assume an opened and a closed state, wherein, in the opened state, a section of the substrate can be inserted into the holding unit and, in the closed state, the section is held by the holding unit. Further, a system for printing on a substrate with a previously described apparatus is disclosed.
