Abstract
An interference check system capable of appropriately checking interference between a machine tool and a robot in real time even in the case where real-time properties of data communication are not secured in a system including a machine tool and a robot. The interference check system includes a machine tool controller configured to control a machine tool, a robot controller configured to control a robot, and an interference check execution unit configured to include shape model data or the like of a machine tool mechanical unit and a robot mechanical unit. The interference check execution unit checks presence/absence of interference between the machine tool mechanical unit and the robot mechanical unit based on the shape model data of the machine tool and the robot and time-series data generated by integrating the positions of the control axes of the machine tool and the robot, respectively.
