Abstract: An accuracy diagnostic device for a machine tool diagnoses an accuracy of the machine tool. The machine tool includes a change amount detection unit that measures a change amount. The change amount changes due to an installation environment and an operational motion. The accuracy diagnostic device includes a change-amount-reference-value recording unit that records a reference value of the change amount.

Abstract: A technique for suitably performing a health evaluation of individuals and organizations. A question information database of a management server stores a physical question group which has multiple question items based on the viewpoint of current physical states and lifestyle habits, a mental question group which has multiple question items based on the viewpoint of psychological state, and an engagement question group which has multiple question items based on the viewpoint of the user's motivation. The management server sends thea user terminal question information generated on the basis of the physical question group, the mental question group and the engagement question group. The user terminal sends the management server the user's responses to the received question information. The management server generates advice information and a total score based on the responses and provides these to the user.

Abstract: A temperature of a portion of which the temperature is difficult to directly measure is accurately estimated in a simple method. In S1, information about a coolant discharging/stopping state is obtained. As the information about the coolant discharging/stopping state, a flag is used such that the flag represents 1 for the discharging state and the flag represents 0 for the stopping state.

Next, in S3, lag process is performed for the coolant discharging/stopping state flag, and coefficients for measured temperatures of the coolant and the structure are calculated. Next, in S4, the measured temperatures are multiplied by the coefficients, and an estimated temperature of a portion to which the temperature sensor is not attached is calculated.
