Abstract
According to the present invention, even during and immediately before a machining operation by a machining apparatus, it is possible to improve positioning control accuracy thereof and, as a result, machining accuracy thereof. A robotequipped with a machining toolperforms a moving operation to a target positionof a machining target workpieceand a machining operation on the machining target. A robot moving mechanismmoves the robotin parallel with the workpiecethat is being conveyed by a conveyance carriage. A robot control devicecontrols movement of the robot moving mechanismusing a detection result of a synchronizing sensorand carries out positioning control of the robotusing the detection result of a visual sensoror a synchronizing sensor
