Drive device, drive system, control system and drive motor

A drive system comprising:

• at least two drive units each for accommodating and driving a spindle with a spindle axis, wherein each of the drive units for accommodating a respective section of the spindle comprises a respective spindle space which extends in a respective spindle accommodating axis through each of the drive units, which extends in the direction of the spindle axis, wherein the at least two drive units stably support the spindle,
• a coupling device which elastically couples the at least two drive units to one another in the direction of the spindle accommodating axis, the coupling device comprising at least one spring device which extends along the spindle accommodating axis, and
• wherein the at least one spring device in each case in an unstressed neutral state, in which no spindle (90) is accommodated in the drive system, keeps the two drive units in each case stable at a predetermined distance and provides a respective spring travel from the neutral state in mutually opposite directions along the spindle accommodating axis.
