FTS Maglev Transport System Ferry Lines: Redefining Efficiency and Flexibility in Manufacturing
04
2025/07/
Manufacturing is changing fast. Precision, efficiency, and flexibility are no longer advantages — they’re requirements. Traditional conveyor systems like belts and rollers, once reliable, now struggle to keep pace with the modern production.
As industries push for tighter tolerances (within 10 μm), shorter cycle times and more agile manufacturing, new technologies are needed to stay competitive. Especially in industries like semiconductors, precision engineering and pharmaceuticals, the standard for performance keeps rising.
The FTS Maglev Conveyor Ferry Line meets this challenge head-on — redefining how factories move, produce and compete.
Application Scenarios: Precision, Flexibility and Smarter Design All in One System
Sub-5 μm High-Precision Transport
Built with high-precision linear guide rails, FTS Ferry Line achieves positioning accuracy within 5 μm, dramatically outperforming traditional systems.
Compared with V-guide design, the FTS maintains consistent precision both along and across the direction of movement, ensuring accurate handling during processing and assembly.
Multi-Process Production on a Single Line
Dynamic track switching allows multiple workflows to run in parallel without downtime or complex reconfiguration. This enables the manufacturers to deal with product variants on a shared line, boosting utilization, and shortening changeover times.
Cost-effective, Seamless Integration
Using linear modules or ball screw modules instead of expensive curved segments, the FTS Connection Line balances performance and costs.
It also connects easily with traditional belt and roller conveyors, enabling smooth upgrades without system replacement.
Unique Advantages: Smarter, Faster and Safer Performance
Simplified Control Architecture
Each mover operates as an independent axis directly managed by FTS controller, simplifying system usage and reducing overall costs. This streamlined design speeds up integration and improves long-term reliability.
Optimized Flow with Ferry Coordination
Through synchronized “ferry” scheduling, movers advance toward docking points even before connections are fully ready. This seamless coordination significantly boosts transfer efficiency and helps maintain stable and predictable production cycle times.
Built-in Safety and Collision Protection
An intelligent traffic management system combined with mechanical stop blocks provides anti-collisions and safeguards for production flow, ensuring safe, reliable operation.
Real-Time Position Monitoring
With the self-developed iFTS-Studio configuration software, operators can monitor the exact positioning of movers both on the maglev motor modules and across the ferry line in real time. This full-chain visibility not only improves production efficiency but also supports swift troubleshooting and enhanced quality control.
Moving Toward Smarter Manufacturing
The FTS Maglev Transport System Ferry Line provides manufacturers with the precision, flexibility and intelligence needed to meet today’s production challenges — and to stay competitive as expectations continue to grow.
When you’re ready to move faster, perform better, and lead the next era of smart manufacturing, FTS is ready to deliver.
