Abstract: A lathe system includes a spindle capable of gripping a bar and moving back and forth in an axial direction of the bar and a tool post to which a first tool is attached. The lathe system can manufacture a plurality of products having an identical shape from the bar by repeating a machining of the bar, a cutting off of a machined portion of the bar, and a grip change by the spindle, the grip change by the spindle comprising releasing the bar, moving back, and re-gripping the bar at a predetermined gripping position. The lathe system further includes a gripping position selecting unit capable of selecting a special gripping position at which the spindle re-grips the bar when a state of the machine tool system meets a predetermined condition, the special gripping position being different from the predetermined gripping position.
