To provide a shaft feeder with which an operation for setting a shaft movement amount can be performed on a touch panel and numerical values for the shaft movement amount can be accurately set. A shaft feeder is used for moving a shaft in an industrial device and includes a display device including a touch panel, an operation detector that detects a left/right swipe operation on the touch panel, a display control unit that displays coordinate values relating to the shaft on the display device and changes the displayed coordinate values on the basis of the swipe operation detected by the operation detector, and a shaft movement unit that moves the shaft to a position indicated by the coordinate values on the basis of the displayed coordinate values.
