First scanned images of the first container are received from a scanning device that show the contents of the interior of the first container before the first container is cut and opened. Second scanned images that are of the contents of the first container after the first container is cut and opened are also received. The images are analyzed and, based upon the analysis, selective modifications to the operating parameters of the container opening machine are determined and made.

A machining parameter adjustment system is established in a controller. The controller is connected to a machine. The controller is configured to receive a machining program and analyze at least one process included in the machining program. Also, the controller sets a tuning program corresponding to the process and inserts the tuning program before or after the code of the process, so as to generate an integration program and upload the integration program to the machine.

An example system includes a cutting tool and a device configured to remotely control the cutting tool. The device is configured to establish a wireless communication with the cutting tool, and the cutting tool is configured to send a first signal to the device indicating that the cutting tool is enabled to be operated remotely responsive to the cutting tool receiving information indicating that a trigger is locked in an on state and a remote switch is in a first position. The device is configured to send a second signal to the cutting tool indicating a request to cause the cutting tool to perform a cutting operation responsive to receiving information indicative of actuation of at least one button of a user interface of the device.

A vibration cutting process diagnostic device diagnoses the propriety of a vibration cutting process to machine the sectional shape of a working object into a non-complete round shape by reciprocating a movable shaft. This device includes a frequency analyzer to calculate a frequency component contained in a position command signal for the movable shaft on the basis of shape data, which is machining shape data on a workpiece treated as the working object, and a machining speed set value; and a process diagnosis executor to diagnose the propriety of machining the shape data under the machining speed set value on the basis of the frequency component and a movable shaft parameter of the movable shaft.

A calibration system for a food processing machine has a conveyor for conveying a workpiece, scanning system for scanning the workpiece and creating a digital image of the workpiece, and a cutting device downstream from the scanning system for cutting the workpiece. A calibration object is conveyed through the food processing machine by the conveyor and scanned. A controller, with a memory, is in communication with the cutting device and the conveyor such that the controller can track position of the cutting device as the cutting device is moved into alignment with the calibration object and store calibration values on the memory corresponding to the movement of the cutting device into alignment with the calibration object. The controller is configured to calibrate movement of the cutting device relative to the workpiece based on the digital image of the workpiece and the calibration values to thereafter accurately cut the workpiece.

An acquisition part (10, 11, 12) acquires a plurality of types of data of tissue used to form a pathological section specimen. A storage part (13) stores the data of the tissue. A parameter generation part (14) generates parameters, which are used when preparing the pathological section specimen, based on the data of the tissue acquired by the acquisition part (10, 11, 12). A pathological section specimen preparation part (15) prepares the pathological section specimen using the parameters generated by the parameter generation part (14).

Nesting methods and computer-controlled machine tools for cutting one or more objects from a workpiece. The nesting methods aid in minimizing wasted material by assigning efficiently packed, nested locations for each object on the workpiece. The nesting methods assign locations in view of a predetermined stacking order of the objects, thereby preventing issues in subsequent manufacturing steps that would result from a substantial reordering of the objects.
