Abstract
A workpiece conveying system includes a disposition component, a first imaging component, a first position sensor, a conveyor, a first removal component, and a position adjuster. A plurality of workpieces are disposable on the disposition component. The first imaging captures an image of workpieces on the disposition component. The first position sensor senses a position of a workpiece to be removed from the disposition component based on the captured image. The conveyor conveys the workpiece removed from the disposition component. The first removal component removes from the disposition component a workpiece whose position has been sensed and places the workpiece on the conveyor. The position adjuster adjusts a position of the workpiece placed on the conveyor.
