Abstract

An abnormality occurrence presumption apparatus which presumes the occurrence of an abnormality in a telescopic cover attached to a machine tool performs supervised learning on the basis of a feature amount extracted from a physical quantity acquired during an operation of the machine tool and information related to an abnormality occurring in the telescopic cover, and stores the result of the learning. The abnormality occurrence presumption apparatus presumes an abnormality that may occur in the telescopic cover during the operation of the machine tool on the basis of the result of the learning and the feature amount extracted from the physical quantity.

Claims (22)

1. An abnormality occurrence presumption apparatus for a telescopic cover for presuming occurrence of an abnormality associated with the telescopic cover attached to a device, the abnormality occurrence presumption apparatus comprising:

a learning result storage unit which stores a learning result of supervised learning performed on the basis of a feature amount extracted from a physical quantity acquired during an operation of the device and on the basis of information related to an abnormality occurring in the telescopic cover, wherein the physical quantity includes at least any one of a sound produced by the device and a current value in the device and the abnormality includes at least an abnormality occurrence part;

a physical quantity acquisition unit which acquires the physical quantity including at least any one of a sound produced by the device and a current value in the device during the operation of the device;

a feature amount extraction unit which extracts the feature amount of the physical quantity on the basis of the physical quantity acquired by the physical quantity acquisition unit;

an abnormality presumption unit which presumes an abnormality that may occur in the telescopic cover during the operation of the device on the basis of the learning result stored in the learning result storage unit and on the basis of the feature amount extracted by the feature amount extraction unit, wherein the abnormality includes at least an abnormality occurrence part; and

a presumption result output unit which outputs the abnormality presumed by the abnormality presumption unit,

wherein the physical quantity acquisition unit acquires the physical quantity during the operation of the device based on a predetermined block which is defined in advance among blocks in a machining program.

2. The abnormality occurrence presumption apparatus according to claim 1 , further comprising:

a supervised learning unit which performs supervised learning on the basis of the feature amount extracted from the physical quantity acquired during the operation of the device and on the basis of the information related to the abnormality occurring in the telescopic cover, and stores a result of the learning in the learning result storage unit.

3. The abnormality occurrence presumption apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the feature amount of the physical quantity is a numerical value showing a feature of the physical quantity.

4. The abnormality occurrence presumption apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the physical quantity acquisition unit acquires the physical quantity during the operation of the device based on a determination program.

5. The abnormality occurrence presumption apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the physical quantity includes the current value which is an electrical load during the operation of the device.

6. An abnormality occurrence presumption method for presuming occurrence of an abnormality associated with a telescopic cover attached to a device, the abnormality occurrence presumption method comprising:

operating the device with the telescopic cover being attached thereto;

acquiring a physical quantity including at least any one of a sound produced by the device and a current value in the device when the device is operated;

extracting a feature amount of the acquired physical quantity;

performing supervised learning which receives, as inputs, correct answer information related to an abnormality occurring in the telescopic cover and the extracted feature amount, wherein the abnormality includes at least an abnormality occurrence part; and

presuming an abnormality that may occur in the telescopic cover on the basis of a learning result of the supervised learning when an arbitrary feature amount of the physical quantity is input, wherein the physical quantity includes at least any one of a sound produced by the device and a current value, acquired when the device is operated,

wherein the physical quantity is acquired during the operation of the device based on a predetermined block which is defined in advance among blocks in a machining program.

7. The abnormality occurrence presumption method according to claim 6 , wherein the feature amount of the physical quantity is a numerical value showing a feature of the physical quantity.

8. The abnormality occurrence presumption method according to claim 6 , wherein the physical quantity is acquired during the operation of the device based on a determination program.

9. The abnormality occurrence presumption method according to claim 6 , wherein the physical quantity includes the current value which is an electrical load during the operation of the device.
