摘要： A process control device includes: a change table detection unit to determine existence of a change table corresponding to a progress file; a progress file adjustment unit to change, when the change table detection unit determines that there exists a change table, the content of the progress file based on the change table; a unit to control a transport device of an item in process based on the progress file changed by the progress file adjustment unit; and a unit to control a manufacturing device of the item based on the progress file changed by the progress file adjustment unit. The manufacturing device control unit controls the manufacturing device based on the progress file that has been changed by the progress file adjustment unit, and thus, it is possible to change the processing orders, processing conditions and the like even when individual items are in respective manufacturing steps.

摘要： A process control device for controlling a processing device and a transport apparatus while updating process information of a lot includes: a control information update unit to update control information for controlling the processing device and the transport apparatus; a work-in-process information update unit to update the work-in-process information indicating a location of a lot; a processing device control unit to control the processing device according to the control information updated by the control information update unit and the work-in-process information updated by the work-in-process information updated unit; and a transport apparatus control unit to control the transport apparatus according to the control information updated by the control information update unit and the work-in-process information updated by the work-in-process information update unit. The control information update unit deletes, when trouble occurs, the control information of a lot that is in process at a location where the trouble occurred. Thus, it is possible to release the lot from control of the process control device, and to prevent control of other lots from being restricted.
