Processing Apparatus

Abstract

A processing apparatus includes a processing quality prediction unit capable of outputting workpiece surface processing signal, a storage unit capable of storing workpiece surface processing signal, and a workpiece surface information management unit capable of interpreting workpiece surface processing signal. The workpiece surface information management unit can convert the surface processing signal into data of workpiece surface quality. The workpiece surface information management unit can be utilized to respectively interpret the surface processing signals provided by the processing quality prediction unit and to convert them into data of the roughness degree of the workpiece surface texture, so as to clearly provide information regarding the quality of the workpiece surface and completely utilize the signals detected during the processing for increasing the value added of the processing apparatus and enhancing the efficiency of use of the processing apparatus.
