Abstract

An industrial plant data reproduction device includes the following. A process data collection unit collects process data regarding a group of devices and materials to be processed by the group of devices. A video data collection unit collects video data in which an object whose image is to be obtained is captured, the object pertaining to the group of devices. A graphic data storage unit stores in advance graphic data indicative of a motion target position of the object whose image is to be obtained for each material specification. A graphic data selection unit selects the graphic data corresponding to the material specifications included in the process data every time each of the materials reaches the object whose image is to be obtained. A display processing unit outputs synthetic data in which the selected graphic data is overlaid on the video data.

Claims (17)

1. An industrial plant data reproduction device comprising:

one or more processors configured to:

collect process data regarding a group of devices constituting an industrial plant and materials to be processed by the group of devices;

collect video data in which an object whose image is to be obtained is captured, wherein the object pertains to the group of devices, and wherein a motion target position of the object changes according to material specifications;

store in advance graphic data for each material specification, wherein the graphic data indicates the motion target position of the object whose image is to be obtained;

select the stored graphic data corresponding to the material specifications included in the process data every time each of the materials reaches the object whose image is to be obtained; and

output synthetic data in which the selected graphic data is overlaid on the video data, wherein

the industrial plant includes a roller table configured to convey a material to be rolled which is one of the materials, a side guide arranged in a certain section of the roller table configured to guide the material to be rolled passing the certain section to adjust its position in a width direction, and a monitoring camera configured to capture an image of the side guide when the side guide is the object whose image is to be obtained and output the video data, the one or more processors configured to:

store in advance graphic data indicative of a motion target position of the side guide for each of widths of the materials to be rolled; and

select the stored graphic data corresponding to the width of the next material to be rolled passing the side guide included in the process data every time each of the materials to be rolled reaches an entry side of the side guide; and

the industrial plant includes a crop shear arranged in a certain section of the roller table configured to cut an end in a length direction of the material to be rolled passing the certain section in a width direction, and a monitoring camera configured to capture an image of the crop shear when the crop shear is the object whose image is to be obtained and the material to be rolled passing the crop shear and output the video data, the one or more processors configured to:

store in advance graphic data indicative of a motion target position of the crop shear for each of target cut lengths of the materials to be rolled; and

select the stored graphic data corresponding to the target cut length of the next material to be rolled passing the crop shear included in the process data every time each of the materials to be rolled reaches an entry side of the crop shear.

2. The industrial plant data reproduction device according to claim 1 , wherein

the one or more processors configured to:

generate graph data representing a relationship between the process data and a data collection time; and

output the graph data and the synthetic data in synchronization with each other.
