Abstract
A machine tool system includes a schedule storage unit that stores machining schedule information containing a machining sequence of a plurality of workpieces, and a priority-level setting unit that allows a user to designate any of the workpieces in the machining schedule information stored in the schedule storage unit and to set a priority level for the designated workpiece. The workpiece for which the priority level is set by the priority-level setting unit is machined in accordance with the priority level, and the workpiece for which the priority level is not set is machined in accordance with the machining sequence after the workpiece for which the priority level is set is machined.
Claims2
A machine tool system comprising:
- at least one processor configured to machine a plurality of workpieces in accordance with a preliminarily-set machining sequence;
- and
- an input device configured to receive, while the plurality of workpieces are machined in accordance with the preliminarily-set machining sequence, an input of newly adding a priority level to any of the plurality of workpieces separately from the preliminarily-set machining sequence,
- wherein the processor is configured to continue to machine the plurality of workpieces in accordance with the preliminarily-set machining sequence after a workpiece for which the priority level is added is machined.
