Abstract
A device capable of determining whether or not to clean a work area of a machine tool with higher accuracy. The device includes an imaging device configured to capture first image data of the work area before machining, and configured to capture second image data of the work area after machining, an image data generation section configured to generate third image data indicating a degree of change between brightness of a pixel of the first image data and brightness of a pixel of the second image data, and a determination section configured to determine whether or not to clean the work area based on a histogram indicating a relationship between the brightness of the pixel of the third image data and the number of pixels of the third image data.
