A mover system that provides spatially separated rails of the track interacting with pairs of closely spaced opposed wheels of the mover constraining movement of the mover on the track is provided. Each pair of wheels includes standard cylindrical or crowned wheels contacting the opposed parallel sides of standard rectangular rails, retaining the movers on the track in both horizontal and vertical directions normal to a transport direction along the track. The wheels bear loads in a radial direction with respect to axial motion consistent with its naturally positioned strength.

Multi-rail/roller compliance system for independent mover products

A linear motor system is provided includes a coil assembly, a magnet assembly, and a bearing assembly disposed between the coil and magnet assemblies to allow movement of one or both of them. The bearing assembly includes a single bearing rail that can be mounted on either side of the magnet assembly. The rail has elongated recesses that receive bearing elements. A stage structure may be attached to the assembly, such at to the magnet assembly, to move a machine component along the rail.
