Abstract:
A production system in which a position of a robot relative to a machine tool can be measured and an operation position of the robot can be corrected based on the measurement result, by using a simple configuration. The robot has a vision device attached to a movable part such as a robot arm. The machine tool has a visual target arranged on an outer surface of the machine tool.An image of the visual target captured by a camera is processed by a robot controller or an image processor. Due to such image processing, the position of the robot relative to the machine tool can be measured. Further, the production system has a correcting part which corrects a position of a motion of the robot regarding supplying and ejecting a workpiece, based on the positional relationship between the robot and the machine tool.
Abstract:
A monitoring device monitors a status of a process in a production line in separate unit tasks. The production line includes a plurality of processes. The unit tasks form the process. The monitoring device includes an operational condition acquisition section, a determination section, and an output section. The operational condition acquisition section acquires, on a per-unit task basis, operational conditions of a device being used in the tasks. The determination section determines whether or not the acquired operational conditions are appropriate based on preset reference values. The output section outputs, on a per-unit task basis, information as to whether or not the process is being appropriately performed, based on results of the determination.
Abstract:
To provide an overseas-compatible application sales management system 1000 for managing a 3rd app properly developed by a 3rd party. The overseas-compatible application sales management system 1000 manages online store sale of an application to run at an edge server 400 in a third country and comprises a store registration server 300. The store registration server 300 accepts an export control list including a conformity/nonconformity judgement note and a trade control definition judgement result about an application if a developer of the application is a 3rd party. If the application is judged to be available for store sale in the third country, the store registration server 300 registers the application and the export control list including the conformity/nonconformity judgement note and the trade control definition judgement result in correlation with each other.
Abstract:
There is provided a machining system in which for automation of loading and unloading of an article with respect to a machining device, an operation of a robot can be easily set from a machine controller of the machining device. The machining system includes a machine controller and a robot controller. The machine controller includes a communication section configured to read from a storage section setting data and a robot operation program which correspond to the type of the machined article as set by a setting section when a determination section determines that the moving robot is disposed at a predetermined position, and transmit the same to the robot controller.
Abstract:
To provide a data management apparatus, a data management method, and a data management program capable of restricting the output of machine information to an external location according to the level of confidentiality of each piece of machine information. An edge server that provides machine information in a factory to an external location includes an execution unit configured to execute an application referring to a database storing the machine information, a setting unit configured to acquire lists of transmission destinations and transmission items defined for each application and set, as transmission conditions, a transmission destination and a transmission item permitted by a user from the lists, a data processing unit configured to sort out transmitted data output from the application according to the transmission conditions, and a transmission and reception unit configured to transmit the transmitted data processed to the external location.
Abstract:
An edge server includes: an application execution management unit that manages execution of an application that uses a function of an edge device and/or access processing data of the edge device; a skill information acquisition unit that acquires skill information of a user who is authorized to log into a system including the edge server; and an access control unit determines whether the user has an access right to use the function of the edge device and/or access the processing data of the edge device on the basis of the skill information of the user and a skill-based access list for the use of the function of the edge device and the access to the processing data of the edge device and allows the access when it is determined that the user has the access right.
Abstract:
This movable robot includes a robot arm which performs an operation for a machine tool, a carriage for moving the robot arm to a predetermined installation position, a vision sensor which is supported by the carriage together with the robot arm and which captures an image of recognition information provided on the machine tool when the robot arm is placed at the predetermined installation position, a partner information receiving section for receiving a partner information regarding the machine tool for which the robot performs the operation, and a controller which determines whether the information obtained from the vision sensor corresponds with the partner information when the robot arm is placed at the predetermined installation position by the carriage, and when it corresponds, the robot arm is set to be a state in which the robot arm can perform the operation.
Abstract:
A robot control device which can exchange data with a plurality of robot control devices and with a storage medium which stores setting data of the robot control device, which robot control device can compare setting data which is set a specific robot control device and setting data which is set at another robot control device and setting data which is stored in the storage medium, at least two, for each item, display items with differences between the compared setting data, and reflect that selected setting data.
Abstract:
To make customer check promptly and properly in response to a request for purchase of a 3rd app developed by a 3rd party using an application store operated in a foreign country. A management server 100 manages online store sale for making only an application stored in an app DB 250 and registered for online store sale available for purchase. The management server 100 comprises: an ordering processing unit 112 that judges whether the requested application to be purchased from a user is a 3rd app developed by a 3rd party; and a sales approval processing unit 113. If the application requested to be purchased is the 3rd app, the sales approval processing unit 113 notifies the user of a state waiting for approval by the 3rd party, and gains approval of sale of the 3rd app by transmitting a notification to the 3rd party requesting customer check.
Abstract:
A maintenance support device includes: an image analysis unit configured to extract information indicating an operational state of a piece of factory equipment, based on a real image acquired by an image capture unit of a head-mounted display including a display unit and an image capture unit configured to acquire a real image; a data storage unit configured to store the information indicating the operational state; a data analysis unit configured to determine whether or not an abnormality has occurred in a piece of factory equipment, based on the stored information indicating the operational state; and a display control unit to cause the display unit to display the augmented reality image in which an additional image is superimposed on the real scene, the additional image indicating maintenance information for the piece of factory equipment with respect to which the data analysis unit has determined that an abnormality has occurred.
