[0033] (like Figure 1 (As shown) It should be noted that the track system 1 can be a double-track structure, a single-track structure, or a trackless structure. When the track system 1 is a 60kg / m steel rail double-track or single-track structure, the track system 1 is driven by a servo motor, and the servo motor uses a servo motor encoder to achieve precise linear displacement control.
[0034] In the above embodiments, as a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the track system 1 achieves precise displacement through a servo motor encoder.

The servo motor and the encoder are used in combination to realize the fast and accurate movement of the automatic production line. By accurately controlling the speed and direction of the motor, the production efficiency and work efficiency can be significantly improved.
