Machining system, machine tool, information processing system, setting data inheritance method, and setting data inheritance program

A machine tool that is communicable with an information processing system storing setting data of another machine tool, the machine tool comprising:

• a transmission unit that transmits a setting data acquisition request to the information processing system;
• a reception unit that receives the setting data transmitted from the information processing system in response to the setting data acquisition request when the setting data stored in the information processing system is inheritable to the machine tool;
• and
• a setting unit that allows the machine tool to inherit the setting data received from the information processing system.

An information processing system communicable with a first machine tool and a second machine tool, the information processing system comprising:

• a reception unit that receives setting data set in the first machine tool;
• a storage device that stores the setting data received from the first machine tool;
• and
• a transmission unit that transmits the setting data of the first machine tool stored in the storage device to the second machine tool in response to a setting data acquisition request, when the setting data is inheritable to the second machine tool.

An inheritance method for allowing inheritance of setting data from a first machine tool to a second machine tool, the method comprising:

• receiving setting data set in the first machine tool;
• storing the setting data received from the first machine tool into a storage device;
• and
• transmitting the setting data of the first machine tool stored in the storage device to the second machine tool in response to a setting data acquisition request, when the setting data is inheritable to the second machine tool.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising a program for allowing inheritance of setting data from a first machine tool to a second machine tool that, when executed by an information processing system, causes the information processing system to execute:

• receiving setting data set in the first machine tool;
• storing the setting data received from the first machine tool into a storage device;
• and
• transmitting the setting data of the first machine tool stored in the storage device to the second machine tool in response to a setting data acquisition request, when the setting data is inheritable to the second machine tool.
