A conveying system includes a plurality of carriers and circuitry. The plurality of carriers has a power source generating thrust in accordance with supply of power and moves along a conveying path. The circuitry is configured to execute detection of a collision between the carriers based on an increase in the thrust in the carriers.

Conveying system and method for controlling conveying system

A conveying system includes at least one guide unit and a carrier. The guide unit includes a traveling surface, at least one guide rail, and a magnetic member formed of a soft magnetic material and including a plurality of salient poles aligned along a conveying path. The carrier includes at least one roller coming in contact with the guide rail from a side direction, at least one wheel coming in contact with the traveling surface, and a plurality of coils provided to overlap with the magnetic member in plan view, and configured to generate thrust along the conveying path and attraction toward the magnetic member by generating a moving magnetic field acting on the magnetic member in accordance with supply of power.
