Abstract: A control device configured to control a robot including an articulated arm having a plurality of joints each provided with a motor and turned by driving of the motor and a base supporting the articulated arm includes: a temperature information obtaining unit configured to obtain temperature information about the plurality of joints; a joint specifying unit configured to specify one of the joints that requires cooling, based on the obtained temperature information about the plurality of joints; and a motor control unit configured to control the motor of each of the plurality of joints, wherein, when the joint specifying unit specifies one of the joints, the motor control unit controls the motor of at least one of the joints that is located on a side closer to the base from the specified joint so as to turn the joint on the base side for a given time.

Abstract: A predicting device of a production system includes a machine learning device that learns the relationship between a change in measurement data indicating the state of a power supply and a failure which occurs in the power supply. The machine learning device learns the measurement data including at least a measurement value of electric power consumption in a factory by correlating a state variable indicating the current state of an environment with judgment data indicating a failure notification indicating the occurrence of a failure. A control device of the production system includes a receiving section that receives a prediction notification of a failure which occurs in the power supply, the failure being predicted based on a change in the measurement data indicating the state of the power supply, and a retracting operation control section that makes a working machine transition to a safely retracted state when receiving the prediction notification.

Abstract: In a case in which an operation is alternately carried out by apparatus-1 and the apparatus-2 in cooperation with a robot, an operator carries out operation within an operation range of each of the apparatuses during the interruption of power supply to the apparatus-1 and the apparatus-2. Even if the operator approaches or enters the apparatus-1 or the apparatus-2, an emergency stop unit is not informed of a notice of such approach or entry as far as the interruption of power to the apparatus is confirmed. In a state in which the interruption of power is not confirmed, on the other hand, the emergency stop unit is informed of the notice of operator's approach or entry, and the robot system is emergency stopped.
