A tool load displaying method includes displaying tools specified by a machining program and selectively displaying at least one of machining processes which are specified by the machining program and each of which is performed by using each of the tools. Load information and values of machining parameters in a selected machining process selected among the at least one of machining processes displayed are displayed. A selected tool is selected among the tools. A first selection window showing at least one replacement tool replaceable with the selected tool is displayed so as to select a selected replacement tool among the at least one replacement tool. A second selection window showing at least one machining process performed by using the selected tool is displayed so as to select among the at least one machining process, at least one selected replacement-tool machining process to be performed by using the selected replacement tool.

A machine learning device included in a cutting fluid supply timing control device observes operating state data regarding an operating state of a cutting fluid supply device as a state variable representing a current environment state, acquires supply timing data indicating a timing of supplying a cutting fluid as label data, and then learns the operating state data and the supply timing data in association with each other by using these state variable and label data.

The controller for a machine tool according to the present invention makes it possible to discharge both a coolant and an oil mist from a through hole provided in the tool equipped to a main axis of a machine tool, allows a processing program to instruct the discharge of either the coolant or the oil mist, and carries out such a control that a state where the above-described tool is detached from the main axis is maintained during a predetermined period of time at the time of replacing the tool, and at the same time, the oil mist is discharged from the above-described oil mist unit so as to remove the coolant from the above-described piping during the predetermined period of time.

A system is provided for configuring a delivery device of a cutting or welding apparatus. The system includes a determination module and a mobile computing device. The determination module is configured to determine at least one desired component of the delivery device or a value for at least one operating parameter of the cutting or welding apparatus. The mobile computing device includes a receiver, a reader and a processor. The receiver is configured to receive information from the determination module including at least one of i) identification of the desired component or ii) the value of the operating parameter. The reader is configured to read an element associated with a selected component, where the element provides indicia of at least one characteristic of the selected component. The processor is configure to approve the selected component for assembly into the delivery device.
