A market system capable of providing, via a network, data necessary for a production facility performing production through image processing for a workpiece imaged by an imaging system, includes a storage section configured to store multiple pieces of shape data that are created from a captured image of the workpiece for respective imaging systems and are used as a reference for a shape of the workpiece in the image processing, in correlation with a type of the imaging system and a type of the workpiece, and a providing section configured to provide data stored in the storage section to a customer of the production facility via the network.

Market system

A modular vending machine system including: multiple cartridges configured to hold a good to be dispensed; a docking station configured to removably store at least one of the cartridges; a vending machine main body including a cartridge port configured to receive at least one of the cartridges, a dispensing-port for dispensing the good to a user, and a mechanism configured to perform at least one of removing the good from the cartridge, performing dispensing preparation processing of the good, or dispensing the good via the dispensing port; and control circuitry configured to control operation of the cartridges, the docking station, and the vending machine, wherein the cartridge is provided with a traveling mechanism configured to enable the cartridge to move to and from the docking station and the vending machine main body.

Modular vending machine system and modular vending machine method

A stocker system for transporting a good via a transport vehicle to a stocker with multiple storage compartments, the stocker system including: a stocker information memory section configured to memorize stocker information including arrangement position information of the storage compartments in the stocker, and information of presence or absence of the good in the storage compartments; a stocker information updating section configured to update the stocker information in accordance with the goods being taken in and out of the storage compartments; and a stopping position setting section configured to acquire the arrangement position information of an empty storage compartment from the stocker information and to set a stopping position of the transport vehicle for the good to be put into the empty storage compartment based on the acquired arrangement position information of the empty storage compartment.

Stocker system

A plasma-generating device capable of detecting a short circuit or electrical discharge of a cable. In response to a detection voltage detected by a current transformer becoming equal to or greater than a threshold voltage, a touchscreen panel of the plasma-generating device reports a current abnormality. When a short circuit or a discharge occurs between the first cable and the second cable, which are a pair of cables, an induced current flows through the shield member by electromagnetic induction. Therefore, the detector can detect a current abnormality due to a short circuit or electrical discharge between the first cable and the second cable.
