A dispatch system and a dispatch method for manufacturing mold are provided. The dispatch system includes a control unit, a mold material storage unit, a processing cutter storage unit, an object pick-and-place and transfer unit, a mold processing unit and a mold product storage unit. The mold material storage unit includes many unprocessed mold materials. The processing cutter storage unit includes many processing cutters. The object pick-and-place and transfer unit is electrically connected to the control unit and disposed between the mold material storage unit and the processing cutter storage unit. One of the unprocessed mold materials and one of the processing cutters are transferred to the mold processing unit by the object pick-and-place and transfer unit, the unprocessed mold material is processed to form a mold product by the mold processing unit, and the mold product is transferred to the mold product storage unit.

In a method for operating a sawline for logs, the sawline including a conveyor for conveying a log in the sawline, and a processing apparatus for processing the log, the log is fed into the sawline, the log is conveyed onwards in the longitudinal direction in the sawline, the overall length of the log is determined, and the log is guided into the processing apparatus, with which the log is processed at the same time, when the log is conveyed onwards in the sawline. The length of the part of the log that is outside the processing apparatus is determined with a camera apparatus, and the location of the end of the log in the processing apparatus is determined on the basis of the overall length of the log and on the basis of the length of the part of the log that is outside the processing apparatus.

A machining system which includes a plurality of machine tools each having an independent operation part and controller, and shared peripheral equipment associated with all of the plurality of machine tools, includes a shared controller for the shared peripheral equipment which is operable by each of the operation parts of the plurality of machine tools, wherein the shared controller includes an authorization part for granting operation authority to one of the operation parts of the plurality of the machine tools.

A control system for handling a processing product includes a control device with at least one application module for interconnecting first and second sensor components, and a control module, wherein the first and second sensor components capture first and second sensor data, the handling component handles, processes and/or manipulates the processing product, and the control module executes the control program, and further includes an edge computing device which determines an item of time information, where times for transporting a product transported on the transport device from the first to the second sensor component and on to the handling component are determined from the item of time information, and wherein the control module executes the control program to provide real-time control of the handling component for handling the processing product taking into account the first and second sensor data and the time information and/or the determined transport times.

There is provided a flexible manufacturing system that can reliably place a workpiece that isn't defective piece in a state where the workpiece will be machined again. After a pallet is conveyed to a standby position and before machining of the workpiece attached to the pallet is started, controllers determines whether machining of the workpiece with a corresponding machining device is possible. When it is determined that machining is possible, the controller starts machining with the machining device. When it is determined that machining is impossible, the controller make a conveyor convey the pallet from the standby position to a pallet storage room, and stores the machining status information on the conveyed pallet as the machining-waiting state.

The present disclosure relates to a manufacturing system, method and control circuitry for quality assured manufacturing of at least two biopharmaceutical products. The manufacturing system (100) comprises a warehouse facility (210), a hydration facility (220), and at least two biopharmaceutical manufacturing facilities, wherein the warehouse facility (210) and hydration facility (220) are comprised in the macro structure (200). Each biopharmaceutical manufacturing facility is comprised in a respective micro node (300), and a control facility (230) in the macro structure (200) is configured to control interoperability of the macro structure (200) and the micro nodes (300) by means of a network spine interconnecting the macro structure (200) with each micro node (300).

Provided is a technique of transporting an object to be transported to a machine tool more securely. A transport system includes a transport path, and a storage portion. The storage portion stores an object, and has a first reference shape. The transport system includes machine tools, and a transport device that moves on and the transport path and transports an object. The control unit executes a process of making a camera photograph the first reference shape to acquire a first image from the camera, and a process of correcting a control parameter to be used in transporting an object to be transported stored in the storage portion to the machine tool that is a transport destination on the basis of a position of the first reference shape in the first image.
