Abstract
An operation management apparatus predicts the machining processes of one or more facilities. This operation management apparatus acquires a machining program operating on the facilities and including an execution time for each process, generates schedule data to which related information (an identifier of the process) is added, and generates, for each of the facilities, a graph (a process schedule) including a time axis and indicating a progress of the process, based on the generated schedule data.
Claims11
An operation management apparatus for predicting machining processes of one or more facilities, comprising:
- a data processing unit for acquiring a machining program operating on the facilities and including an execution time for each process, and generating schedule data to which related information is added, the related information being an identifier of the process;
- and
- a control unit for generating a process schedule for each of the facilities, the process schedule being a graph including a time axis and indicating a progress of the process based on the schedule data,
- wherein the data processing unit further acquires event information from the facilities, and generates actual measurement event data obtained by adding the related information to the event information when a predetermined event has occurred, and
- the control unit specifies the related information associated with the actual measurement event data, extracts the process having the specified related information from the schedule data, and highlights the extracted process on the process schedule.
An operation management apparatus for predicting machining processes of facilities, the operation management apparatus comprising a processor configured to
- acquire a machining program operating on the facilities and including an execution time required for executing each process of the machining program,
- generate schedule data to which related information is added, the related information being an identifier of the process,
- generate a process schedule for each of the facilities, the process schedule being a graph including a time axis and indicating a progress of the process based on the schedule data,
- acquire event information from the facilities,
- generate actual measurement event data obtained by adding the related information to the event information in response to an occurrence of a predetermined event,
- specify the related information associated with the actual measurement event data,
- extract the process having the specified related information from the schedule data, and
- highlight the extracted process on the process schedule.
