Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a technique capable of removing oil regardless of a shape of a target object to which the oil is attached. Cutting oil is decomposed by irradiating the cutting oil with a plasma gas containing oxygen plasma. Oxygen radicals decompose a carbon element and a hydrogen element constituting the oil into carbon dioxide and water, respectively, to remove the oil. Therefore, paraffin and ester contained in the cutting oil can be decomposed by irradiating the cutting oil with the plasma gas containing oxygen plasma. Since the plasma gas can flow along a shape of a target object, the oil can be removed regardless of a shape of a portion of the target object to which the oil is attached.

Abstract: There is provided a simulation method for executing a simulation of a work system composed of multiple modules using a computer, the simulation method including: an acquisition step of acquiring module data in which various data including data relating to shapes of the multiple modules are grouped for each module; a structuring step of structuring a model of the work system in a virtual space by integrating the module data acquired in the acquisition step; and an execution step of executing the simulation using the model structured in the structuring step.

Abstract: A plasma-generating device capable of detecting a short circuit or electrical discharge of a cable. In response to a detection voltage detected by a current transformer becoming equal to or greater than a threshold voltage, a touchscreen panel of the plasma-generating device reports a current abnormality. When a short circuit or a discharge occurs between the first cable and the second cable, which are a pair of cables, an induced current flows through the shield member by electromagnetic induction. Therefore, the detector can detect a current abnormality due to a short circuit or electrical discharge between the first cable and the second cable.
