To create production instructions in a short period of time, in the presence of a divergence between a planned production number and the number of performance generated by variations of production volume due to variations of yield with respect to production lines of electronic device products such as a hard disk and a liquid crystal display, a product ratio of input volume to a production line (product mix) is changed by calculating the average number of performance and a standard deviation in an arbitrary period from the divergence between the planned number of production and the number of performance at the present and the production performance in the past; calculating a target achievement probability to a final target from the average number of performance, the standard deviation and the production performance at present; and comparing the target achievement probability to the final target with a threshold.

摘要:
In a quality control system for manufacturing industrial products, the product quality history and the manufacturing process history are collected and collated to calculate the correlation magnitude between the two histories. The candidates for the cause of quality variation hidden in the manufacturing processes are listed, and the correlation magnitude between all combinations of the variates of the manufacturing process history are calculated. Further, by utilizing the manufacturing sequence history used for an input plan, a causation connecting structure model between the manufacturing processes of the manufacturing line is automatically generated and automatically analyzed thereby to automatically extract the fundamental cause of quality variation from the candidates for the cause of quality variation. By doing so, the cause of quality variation of industrial products manufactured through a complicated process can be traced in a complicated connecting structure in the manufacturing history data.

摘要:
A control system in which an end effector of a robot is mechanically compliant for a particular object. The robot has multiple degrees of freedom and movement and includes a sensor which senses a velocity nd a sensor which senses an external force. A virtual compliance control method is applied to the robot. Influence of the weight and gyro moment of the end effector is subtracted from a value obtained from a mechanism which senses the external force to set a term of the external force in a mathematic model of the control system constructed during control. By such arrangement, when a rotational body having a mechanically large rotational momentum is set as the end effector of the robot, the control system is mechanically compliant with the object.

A method and apparatus for controlling a robot which performs an operation on an object while applying any desired force to the object, and a method of controlling automobile suspensions so as to maintain the contact between the automobile and a road surface appropriately. A robot controller which controls the motion of an end effector includes a rotating body, using an external force applied to the effector. The controller beforehand measures the tensor of inertia of the rotating body, calculates the angular momentum of the rotating body on the basis of a sensed value output from a unit for sensing the rotational speed of the rotating body and the tensor of inertia of the rotating body, calculates a gyro-moment occurring in the rotating body on the basis of a sensed value output from a sensor for sensing the motion of the robot and the angular momentum of the rotating body, and uses as a control input value the external force from a sensor for sensing value minus the value of the gyro-moment. An automobile suspension is controlled by an external force applied to a wheel of the automobile, using as a control input value a sensed value output from a sensor for sensing the external force minus the value of a gyro-moment occurring in the wheel.
