Workpiece unloading device

Abstract

The purpose of the present invention is to provide a workpiece unloading device that can stabilize cycle time even when work for reversing a workpiece is involved. A workpiece unloading system comprises a workpiece unloading device for unloading a workpiece, and a control device for setting workpiece unloading order. The control device comprises: a storage unit that stores a set posture representing a posture of a workpiece when the workpiece is set on a jig; a current posture detection unit that detects a current posture representing the current posture of the workpiece; a change amount calculation unit that calculates a change amount between the set posture and the current posture; an unloading candidate identification unit that compares the change amount with a threshold value, and identifies, on the basis of the comparison result, a workpiece as an unloading candidate with priority; and an unload instruction unit that outputs, to the workpiece unloading device, a first instruction to unload the workpiece as the unloading candidate with priority.
