Abstract
A control unit for operating a goods transport system, a construction kit for producing the goods transport system, and a simulation program product for adjusting the operational behavior of the goods transport system, wherein the goods transport system includes a feed rail and a discharge rail that are each configured as a linear motor, where the rails are configured to linearly move a workpiece support, where a deflecting module is arranged between the feed rail and the discharge rail is configured to move the workpiece support in a specifiable manner, where the deflecting module is further configured as an active component of a planar motor.
