Abstract: A transport system for the transport of containers in a container treatment facility includes a transport track with at least one long stator of a linear motor and multiple transport elements for transporting one or multiple containers. The transport elements are arranged movably on the transport track and formed to be guided along the transport track through magnetic interaction with the at least one long stator. The front and back sides of the transport elements are formed to driven into one another at least in pairs and to have a minimal attainable transport spacing that is smaller than the longitudinal extension of the transport elements.

Abstract: A device for transporting objects, preferably containers, along a transport path. A control unit is configured to operate the device in a first operating mode and in a second operating mode. In the first operating mode and in the second operating mode the objects are transported in each case by pairs which are formed in each case from one of the first movement devices and one of the second movement devices. In the first operating mode, the pairs are formed such that the first movement device is positioned in a direction of the transport path upstream of the second movement device of the respective pair. In the second operating mode, the positioning is reversed. The device advantageously makes it possible for different objects to be able to be transported without a mechanical adjustment relative to the format and for a relatively small spacing to be able to be achieved.

Abstract: The invention relates to a container processing system (10A-10U) for processing containers (12). The container processing system (10A-10U) has a plurality of processing units (22) for processing the containers (12) and a planar drive system (14) for transporting the containers (12). The planar drive system (14) is configured to move the plurality of movement devices (18) individually to a selection of the plurality of processing units (22) according to in each case one of a plurality of processing profiles for different container processing, wherein each of the plurality of processing profiles has a different selection of the plurality of processing units (22). The container processing system (10A-10U) advantageously allows flexible processing of different containers (different formats, contents, designs, bundles, packages, etc.) from a lot size of 1.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device and to a plurality of methods for transporting. One method includes moving a plurality of transport movement devices (14) along a guide track (22) by means of a linear motor system. A long stator (16) of the linear motor system has, along a portion of the guide track (22), a predetermined functional region. The method includes portion-wise varying of a magnetic field generation of the long stator (16) within the predetermined functional region (46) for successive transport movement devices of the plurality of transport movement devices (14). It is thus possible to achieve various advantages, such as for example prolonging the motor service life, preventing emergency shut-offs, increased performance of the long stator linear motor and/or allowing smaller dimensioning of the long stator (16).
