Transport system and processing system

A transport system comprising:

• a transport path including first and second transport modules on which a carriage moves;
• a third transport module that is configured to be able to move to a position for connecting to the first and second transport modules between the first and second transport modules and on which the carriage is able to move between the first and second transport modules;
• and
• a fourth transport module that is installed outside an area including the transport path and on which the carriage moves,
• wherein the third transport module is configured to be able to move to a position for connecting to the fourth transport module.

A transport system comprising:

• a transport path that has a drive unit that drives a carriage and on which the carriage moves;
• a control unit that positions the carriage on the transport path to stop the carriage by using servo control;
• and
• a fixing unit that fixes the carriage to the transport path,
• wherein, when the carriage is stopped by the control unit, the fixing unit fixes the carriage to the transport path at a first stop position where external force above a predetermined strength is applied to the carriage and does not fix the carriage to the transport path at a second stop position where no external force above the predetermined strength is applied to the carriage.
