Abstract
A system for selecting one of multiple paths in a linear drive system includes track segments having a first drive member and at least one mover having a second drive member for the linear drive system. A switch track segment includes a first path, a second path, and a third path along which the mover may travel. The switch track segment also includes a first sensor positioned along the first path to detect the mover present on the first path, a second sensor positioned along the second path to detect the mover present on the second path, and a third sensor positioned along the third path to detect the mover present on the third path. The switching device is configured to engage the mover to selectively direct the mover along either the first path, the second path or the third path.
