Abstract:
A production apparatus includes a workbench, a movement apparatus, a conveyance apparatus, a motion detector, and a control unit. The movement apparatus configured to move the workpiece on the workbench to a predetermined delivery position. The conveyance apparatus configured to convey the workpiece moved to the predetermined delivery position to an adjacent production apparatus. The motion detector configured to detect conveyance motion of the conveyance apparatus of the adjacent production apparatus. The control unit configured to operate the movement apparatus to move the workpiece on the workbench to the predetermined delivery position. If conveyance motion of the conveyance apparatus of the adjacent production apparatus is detected by the motion detector, the control unit operates the conveyance apparatus to convey the workpiece to a delivery position of the adjacent production apparatus.

Claim (Index 8):
A method for controlling a production system in which a plurality of production apparatuses are arranged adjacently,\n wherein each of the production apparatuses comprises: a workbench on which a workpiece is placed, configured to subject the workpiece to a predetermined operation; a movement apparatus configured to move the workpiece subjected to the predetermined operation on the workbench to a predetermined delivery position; a conveyance apparatus configured to convey the workpiece moved to the predetermined delivery position to an adjacent production apparatus; a motion detector configured to detect conveyance motion of the conveyance apparatus of the adjacent production apparatus; and a control unit configured to control the conveyance apparatus, wherein the plurality of production apparatuses are arranged such that a conveyance area of the conveyance apparatus of the production apparatus is overlapped with a conveyance area of the conveyance apparatus of the adjacent production apparatus, and the control unit performs control to operate the movement apparatus and move the workpiece on the workbench to the predetermined delivery position, and if conveyance motion of the conveyance apparatus of the adjacent production apparatus is detected by the motion detector, the control unit operates the conveyance apparatus to convey the workpiece to a delivery position of the adjacent production apparatus.
