Abstract

An information processing device of the present disclosure is used in a mounting system including multiple mounting-related devices each having a display section that visually notifies an operator of information and an attachment portion to which a member is attached and related to a process of mounting a component on a processing target object, and a moving work device that is moved between the multiple mounting-related devices to automatically attach and detach the member to and from the attachment portion. The information processing device includes a control section that outputs, to the display section, notification information including work details that are substitutable by the operator in association with a status of the moving work device based on a predetermined priority order based on continuation of processes of the mounting-related devices.

Claims (27)

1. An information processing device used in a mounting system including multiple mounting-related devices each having a display section configured to visually notify an operator of information and an attachment portion to which a member is attached and related to a process of mounting a component on a processing target object, and a moving work device that is moved between the multiple mounting-related devices to automatically attach and detach the member to and from the attachment portion, the information processing device comprising:

a control section configured to output, to the display section, notification information including work details that are substitutable by the operator in association with a status of the moving work device based on a predetermined priority order based on continuation of processes of the mounting-related devices.

2. The information processing device according to claim 1 , wherein

the notification information includes one or more of (1) to (4), and

the priority order is an order of (1) to (4) among pieces of existing information:

(1) impossible information that a spare member is absent in a spare attachment portion and the moving work device is inoperable in the moving work device configured to attach and detach the member to and from the spare attachment portion,

(2) stop information regarding stoppage of the moving work device,

(3) delay information regarding a work delay of the moving work device, and

(4) interruption information regarding interruption of movement of the moving work device.

3. The information processing device according to claim 1 , wherein

the notification information includes one or more of (5) to (8), and

the priority order is an order of (5) to (8) among pieces of existing information:

(5) immediate exchange information regarding an exchange operation for the member by the operator,

(6) abnormality information regarding an abnormality of the moving work device,

(7) warning information regarding an advance warning of the exchange operation for the member by the operator, and

(8) delay information regarding a work delay of the moving work device.

4. The information processing device according to claim 1 , wherein

the control section outputs a notification screen including one or more of a state display field including one or more of a member provision icon, an abnormality icon, and a delay icon, an attachment portion display field including at least a position of a work target attachment portion to which a spare member is to be attached and a position of a spare attachment portion in which a corresponding spare member is served in advance, a comment display field displaying a comment on work details, and a schedule display field including an advance notification time for executing work, to the display section to be displayed as the notification information.

5. The information processing device according to claim 1 , wherein

the control section outputs the notification information to only a mounting-related device having an attachment portion corresponding to the notification information among the mounting-related devices to be displayed.

6. The information processing device according to claim 1 , wherein

the control section outputs work details after a predetermined time during which the moving work device cannot start work at a scheduled work time to the display section to be displayed as the notification information.

7. The information processing device according to claim 1 , wherein

the mounting system includes a management device configured to manage the moving work device, and

one or more of the mounting-related device, the moving work device, and the management device include the information processing device.

8. An information processing method used in a mounting system including multiple mounting-related devices each having a display section configured to visually notify an operator of information and an attachment portion to which a member is attached and related to a process of mounting a component on a processing target object, and a moving work device that is moved between the multiple mounting-related devices to automatically attach and detach the member to and from the attachment portion, the information processing method comprising:

a step of outputting, to the display section, notification information including work details that are substitutable by the operator in association with a status of the moving work device based on a predetermined priority order.
