Abstract
A magnetic levitation system () for transporting a carrier () in a transport direction (T) is described. The magnetic levitation system includes at least one magnetic bearing () having a first actuator () with a U-shaped electromagnet for contactlessly holding the carrier () in a carrier transportation space (), and a drive unit () having a second actuator () for moving the carrier () in the transport direction. The second actuator () or a projection of the second actuator along the transport direction (T) is partially surrounded by the U-shaped electromagnet.
