Abstract
A magnetic body is to be moved in a contactless fashion in a working space with the aid of the magnet coil system composed of fourteen individually drivable individual coils. The coil system is to be used for this purpose to produce three magnetic field components and five magnetic field gradients. The individual coils are preferably arranged on end-face or lateral surfaces situated oppositely in pairs, and on a tubular peripheral surface surrounding the working space.
