Abstract
A robot slider position setting device sets a position of a robot slider that moves while being loaded with a robot that performs predetermined work on a workpiece by using a tool provided at a distal end of the robot. The robot slider position setting device includes an interference-region-information storage unit that stores interference region information indicating an interference region with which the robot interferes in a predetermined ambient environment, an approaching-direction determination unit that determines a direction of an arm of the robot as an arm approaching direction such that the direction does not overlap the interference region by fixing a wrist rotation center of the robot in a state where the tool is in an orientation according to a predetermined working position, and a position determination unit that determines the position of the robot slider based on the arm approaching direction determined by the approaching-direction determination unit.
