Abstract: A manufacturing system comprises plural types of manufacturing apparatuses driven by operation programs of which language specifications differ from each other. The manufacturing system comprises a cell control apparatus which generates the operation program to be executed in the manufacturing apparatus and communication apparatuses which send the operation programs generated by the cell control apparatus to the respective manufacturing apparatuses. A language specification common to the manufacturing apparatuses of which the types differ from each other is predetermined. The cell control apparatus includes a reading part which reads a common program generated based on the common language specification and a conversion part which converts the common program into the operation programs for the respective manufacturing apparatuses.

Abstract: A production control apparatus includes a workpiece position detection unit, an ID generation unit, an ID notification unit, a data receiving unit, and a storage unit. The data receiving unit receives the unique IDs generated by the ID generation unit and the traceability data (actual production information) when the workpieces for which the unique IDs have been generated are processed, from the manufacturing machines to which the unique IDs have been notified by the ID notification unit. The storage unit records the unique IDs and the traceability data received by the data receiving unit in association with each other.

Abstract: An application security management system and an edge server which enable an application developed by an application developer to be executed only in a state that matches a security risk reported by the developer are provided. In an application security management system, an evaluation management server that manages evaluation of an application developed by an application developer and executed by an edge server registers the application and an access report list related to the usability of a function of the edge device and/or the accessibility of processing data of the edge device after evaluation in an application DB. A distribution management server system that manages distribution of the evaluated application notifies a user who issued a purchase request of the access report list upon receiving the purchase request for the application and distributes the application and the access report list to the edge server when authorization data is received only.

Abstract: A robot controller configured to manage production management information of a machine tool and transmit the information to an upper-level computer, and a processing system including the machine tool, the robot and the robot controller. When a processing-start notification and/or a workpiece exchange-request is transmitted, at least a part of the production management information held by the machine tool is transmitted to the robot controller via a first network. The robot controller combines the production management information of the machine tool and other production management information held by the robot controller, and stores the combined production management information as substantially one production management information. After that, when the upper-level computer requests the robot controller or the machine tool to transmit the product management information, the production management information stored in the robot controller is transmitted to the upper-level computer via a second network.
