Mover coupling

Two, four or six movers can be coupled with a frame. Regardless of the mover design, the following requirements must be met for the coupling:

• 240 mm center distance between movers
• Rectangular arrangement of the movers
• Use the same mover version, e.g. only APM4550-0000

The center distance ensures an almost linear increase in payload. The total payload can be calculated by multiplying the number of movers by the maximum payload of a mover minus the frame weight:
