There is provided a transport system comprising: a stator having a first magnetic force unit; a mover having a second magnetic force unit; and a control unit. The control unit controls a magnetic force acting between the first magnetic force unit and the second magnetic force unit to transport the mover in a first direction. The stator has a first regulating member row including a plurality of first regulating members and a second regulating member row including a plurality of second regulating members, the mover, in a second direction intersecting the first direction, being disposed between the first regulating member row and the second regulating member row. The control unit performs a first process of applying a rotational force to the mover such that one of the first regulating members in the first regulating member row serves as a fulcrum when the mover contacts the first regulating member row.

A laser processing apparatus includes a light source, a laser head configured to emit a laser beam, a robot configured to move the laser head, and a control apparatus configured to control start and stop of generation of the laser beam and control operation of the robot. The control apparatus controls the light source to generate the laser beam when a first time has elapsed after causing the robot to start an operation of accelerating the laser head such that a movement speed of the laser head with respect to a processing target object reaches a constant target speed.
