In the steel plate production line, noncontact magnetic levitation conveyance of a thin steel plate using the attraction force of the electromagnet against the deterioration of the surface quality caused by contact with the roller is proposed. However, since the thin steel plate to be levitated is very flexible, deflection occurs at a place where the attraction force of the electromagnet does not reach, which is a cause of falling of the thin steel plate. Therefore、it is confirmed that by applying a magnetic field from the edge direction of the thin steel plate, the deflection of the thin steel plate is suppressed, and the levitation stability improves. We have considered levitation performance when the attraction force of the electromagnet, the transportation velocity, and the thickness of steel plate are changed. However, we have not examined the support position of the electromagnet installed at the edge of the steel plate. In this study, we conducted a basic study on the influence of supporting position on conveyance performance.
