Abstract

A robot system includes a transfer device, a plurality of robots, a sensor configured to detect a workpiece to which a work has not yet been performed, and a controller provided to each of the plurality of robots. The plurality of robots are disposed in series in a transferring direction of a workpiece. When the sensor detects the unworked workpiece and the robot is in a stand-by state, the controller causes the robot to perform the work to the unworked workpiece, and when the sensor detects the unworked workpiece and the robot is working, the controller inhibits the robot to perform the work to the unworked workpiece.
