Abstract
A manufacturing system includes a stator base, a plurality of movers, one or more end effectors, and a controller. The stator base has a planar stator surface covering an array of electrical coils configured to generate an electromagnetic field. The movers each contain multiple permanent magnets configured to cause the movers to levitate and move relative to the stator surface in response to the electromagnetic field. The end effectors are coupled to the movers, and each end effector perform one or more functions in relation to a material sheet. The controller activates the electrical coils in a manner causing independent, coordinated movement of the movers over the stator surface, and causing the end effectors to engage with and operate on the material sheet.
