Abstract
In relation to work performed by a robot, which is an industrial machine, the objective of the present invention is to enable a cause of a processing failure or abnormality to be understood easily from a stored operation history, and to enable problems that may occur in the future to be prevented. This objective can be achieved by means of a robot system configured such that: an execution history of a program for executing work on a workpiece is stored; information from sensors and information about processing results of the work performed on the workpiece are stored in association with the execution of each program block of the program; and parameter information indicating the cause of a failure in the processing results is added to the execution history when a failure occurs in the processing results.
Claims7
An industrial machine system that uses a sensor to acquire information and performs work on a workpiece, the industrial machine system comprising:
- a storage unit configured to store an execution history of a program for performing work on the workpiece, wherein
- the storage unit stores information from the sensor and information regarding a processing result of the work on the workpiece,
- in a case where a failure has occurred in the processing result, information indicating a cause of the failure in the processing result is added to the execution history, and
- the information indicating the cause of the failure is derived, after execution of the program, by analyzing a cause of a failure that has occurred during the execution or a cause of a failure that may occur in a future, and indicates which data value in the processing result has caused the failure.
An industrial machine system that uses a sensor to acquire information and performs work on a workpiece, the industrial machine system comprising:
- a storage unit configured to store an execution history of a program for executing work on the workpiece;
- and,
- a program editing device having a program editing screen configured to allow editing of the program, wherein
- in a case where a failure has occurred in processing by the program, the execution history of the program is read on the program editing screen of the program editing device so as to reproduce a state of work on the workpiece,
- a cause of a failure at a time of execution or a cause a failure that may occur in a future is analyzed, and
- information indicating the analyzed cause of the failure is displayed on the program editing screen.
