A control device repeats learning of: calculating an allowable condition for speed variations during a processing operation based on an allowable condition for processing error; setting an operating speed change rate used to increase or reduce an operating speed of a robot mechanism unit using a calculated allowable condition for speed variations; and, while increasing or reducing the operating speed change rate over a plurality of repetitions within a range not exceeding a maximum value of the operating speed change rate and within a range of an allowable condition for vibrations occurring in a control target, calculates a new correction amount based on an amount of difference between a position of the control target detected based on a sensor and a target position, and a previously-calculated correction amount.
