An abnormal-vibration-predicting method for a roll grinder that grinds an outer peripheral surface of a rolling roll with a grinding wheel while the rolling roll rotates includes an acquisition step and a prediction step. The acquisition step acquires a rigidity parameter related to a rigidity of the roll grinder and a wheel rotation parameter related to a rotational speed of the grinding wheel. The prediction step predicts an occurrence of an abnormal vibration in a process of grinding the rolling roll by using the rigidity parameter and the wheel rotation parameter.

An automatic vehicle body sanding system operated in a painting factory includes a painting inspection device configured to detect a defective position (NG Point) by analyzing a 2D image of a vehicle body for which an intermediate process has been completed taken with a camera, and display the defective position on a 3D vehicle body drawing. The automatic vehicle body sanding system includes a robot having a multi-joint structure on which at least one of a 3D scanner, a sanding tool, and a dust absorber required for sanding work is mounted. Further, the automatic vehicle body sanding system includes a server configured to match the defective position of the vehicle body detected by the painting inspection device and 3D scan data of the vehicle body scanned by the 3D scanner with a 3D vehicle body drawing shape on a simulator.
