Flying Motion:
XPlanar opens up new degrees of flexibility in mechanical engineering,
because the system combines the individual arrangement of the tiles with
the multi-dimensional positioning capability of the movers on six axes. On top of
that, the contact-free process is absolutely noiseless without mechanical abrasion
and without the release of particles. All surfaces are smooth, easy to clean and can
be coated to meet all application-specific requirements. The number of movers and
tiles is freely selectable.

The planar principle:
A planar mover incorporating permanent
magnets levitates above planar modules
that generate a magnetic field and detect
the mover position.
