A rail member and a rodless cylinder are arranged closely substantially in parallel to one another, and shock absorbers and the rail member are arranged closely substantially in parallel to one another. Accordingly, it is possible to arrange, in an ideal layout, the three components of the rail member, the rodless cylinder, and the shock absorbers. Further, it is possible to realize a compact size of the entire apparatus.
