Abstract

A failure diagnosing device diagnoses failure of a plurality of reduction gears of a mechanical apparatus which includes a plurality of operation parts, a plurality of motors, and the plurality of reduction gears. The failure diagnosing device includes an acceleration/deceleration period identifying module configured to identify an acceleration/deceleration period of operation of one of the plurality of operation parts, a motor current processing module configured to acquire a peak value of an amplitude of a frequency component of motor current in a specific frequency band of one motor that drives the one operation part, in the acceleration/deceleration period, and a determining module configured to determine whether a sign of failure exists in one of the reduction gears.
