Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 2018-124862

By the way, the dental processing machine operates based on the processing program. The processing program is managed by giving an appropriate file name and identifier. The machining program is reusable and the same machining program may be repeatedly sent to the dental machine. In this case, even when the machining program is specified by the file name or identifier of the file in which the machining program is recorded, the machining program may not be specified in detail.

The operating device of the dental processing machine proposed here includes a storage unit A, a processing unit B, and a processing unit C.

The storage unit A includes a machining program in which a machining procedure executed by the dental machining machine is defined, and stores a cutting file associated with the cutting file ID.
The processing unit B is configured to send the processing program included in the cutting file associated with the cutting file ID to the dental processing machine.
The processing unit C prepares a job ID different from the cutting file ID in order to specify the processing program sent to the dental processing machine by the processing unit B, and associates the job ID with the processing program. It is configured.

According to the operation device proposed here, a job ID for specifying the machining program sent to the dental machining machine is prepared separately from the cutting file ID and associated with the machining program. Therefore, for each machining program sent to the dental machining machine, the machining program can be specified by both the cutting file ID and the job ID prepared separately from the cutting file ID. This makes it possible to identify the machining program executed by the dental machine in more detail.

The operation device may further include, for example, a processing unit D for creating a log file in which log data including a cutting file ID and a job ID are recorded for a machining program.

The cutting file may also include data on predetermined items for the material to be machined. In this case, the operating device is associated with the job ID assigned when the machining program included in the cutting file is sent to the dental machining machine and the data of predetermined items regarding the material to be machined. It may further include a processing unit E for creating processing information data.

Further, the operation system of the dental processing machine proposed here includes a server connected to the operation device so as to be capable of data communication. Here, the operating device may include, for example, a processing unit F configured to send log data including a cutting file ID and a job ID to the server. The server may have a recording unit for recording log data.

Further, the operation device may include a processing unit G configured to send processing information data in which a job ID and data of predetermined items about the material to be processed are linked to the server. .. In this case, the server may include a recording unit that records processing information data.

According to the operating device and operating system of the dental processing machine, the processing program can be specified for each processing program sent to the dental processing machine. This makes it possible to identify the machining program executed by the dental machine in more detail.

Hereinafter, the operation device and the operation system of the dental processing machine according to the embodiment of the present invention will be described. It should be noted that the embodiments described here are, of course, not intended to limit the present invention.

FIG. 1 is a configuration example of the operation system of the dental processing machine proposed here. Note that FIG. 1 includes devices that are not included in the operating system so that the overall picture of the operating system can be understood. FIG. 2 is a block diagram showing the configuration of the dental processing machine 1.

<Dental processing machine operation system>
Here, the operation system 10 of the dental processing machine includes an operation device 11, a server 12, and an external device 13 as shown in FIG. The operating device 11, the server 12, and the external device 13 can be embodied by, for example, a computer that drives according to a predetermined program. Specifically, the operating device 11, the server 12, and the external device 13 include a computing device (also referred to as a processor, a CPU (Central Processing Unit), or an MPU (Micro-processing unit)) or a storage device (a processor, a CPU (Central Processing Unit), or an MPU (Micro-processing unit)) of each computer. It has a memory, a hard disk, etc.) and is processed in collaboration with the software. For example, the configurations and processes of the operating device 11, the server 12, and the external device 13 are predetermined according to a database, a data structure, and a predetermined program that store data embodied by a computer in a predetermined format. It can be embodied as a processing module that performs arithmetic processing, or as a part of them.

<Operating device 11>
The operating device 11 is a device for operating the dental processing machine 1. As shown in FIG. 2, the operating device 11 is connected to a plurality of dental processing machines 1 so as to be capable of data communication, and is configured to be able to operate the plurality of dental processing machines 1. The operating device 11 is configured to control the dental processing machine 1 in cooperation with the firmware 1a3 incorporated in each dental processing machine 1. In this case, each dental processing machine 1 is given an identification number for identifying each, and the dental processing machine 1 is configured to be identified by the identification number. Further, the operating device 11 communicates with the dental processing machine 1 at predetermined time intervals, obtains data on the state of the dental processing machine 1 through the firmware 1a3, and monitors the state of the dental processing machine 1.

<Processing program CP>
The operating device 11 sends the machining program CP to the dental machining machine 1. In the dental processing machine 1, the processing program CP is executed through the firmware 1a3. The processing program CP is created in the device 21 in which the CAM software is incorporated. The processing program CP can be created based on the 3D model file 22a created by the apparatus 22 in which the CAD software is incorporated. The 3D model file 22a is, for example, an STL file created in the so-called STL format. The 3D model file 22a records the shape of the processed product to be formed by the dental processing machine 1. The machining program CP is a data group for controlling the dental machining machine 1, and the cutting file 21a in which the machining program CP is recorded may be a so-called NC program. The cutting file 21a in which the machining program CP is recorded may be an NC file or the like in which NC data is described. The machining program CP is transferred from the device 21 in which the CAM software is incorporated to the operating device 11.

For example, the CAM software makes various processing-related settings, such as selecting a prosthesis, selecting a material type, selecting a material shape (Disc or Block, Disc thickness, etc.), and generating a toolpath. It is programmed to do. The device 21 with the built-in CAM software selects the prosthesis required for processing, the type of material, the shape of the material (Disc or Block, Disc thickness, etc.), etc. in various settings related to processing. The data to be performed is held in advance. Such data includes data on predetermined items for the material or work piece processed by the processing program. As shown in FIG. 1, a machining information PI including data of predetermined items for the material or the workpiece to be machined by the machining program is predetermined and prepared in the apparatus 21 in which the CAM software is incorporated. It is good to have. Further, such information may be prepared in advance by, for example, an operator who handles the device 21 in which the CAM software is incorporated.

It is preferable that the device 21 in which the CAM software is incorporated holds data of predetermined items regarding the material or the work piece to be machined by the machining program. Data of predetermined items about the material or the processed product processed by the processing program may be stored in the storage area of the device 21 in which the CAM software is incorporated, or may be stored in a USB memory or a hard disk drive (HDD). It may be read from an external storage device such as.

FIG. 3 is a diagram showing a data sequence of the machining program CP described in the cutting file 21a in this embodiment. The machining program CP shown in FIG. 3 is provided with a comment line S1 enclosed in parentheses at the first line. In the comment line, the file name (Milling File Name), the cutting file ID (Milling File ID), and the machining information PI of the cutting file in which the machining program CP is recorded are described. The cutting file ID (Milling File ID) is appropriately referred to as a "file ID". In the machining program CP shown in FIG. 3, commands in which the machining procedure by the machining program CP is described are described in order after the comment line S1.

Here, the "comment line" is a line input by a predetermined method in the machining program, and is a part that is not read as a program by the compiler. The method of setting the "comment line" is predetermined by the programming language used for the machining program. In the "comment line", for example, a comment can be written by arbitrarily combining the characters of the computer character set. Here, the CAM software describes the file name (Milling File Name), cutting file ID (Milling File ID), and machining information PI of the cutting file in such a "comment line".

In this embodiment, data of predetermined items about the material or the work piece processed by the processing program CP is described in the comment line of the processing program CP. The data of predetermined items about the material to be processed or the processed product described in the comment line is ignored as a mere comment when the processing program CP is executed by the dental processing machine 1.

Further, the data and the file ID described in the comment line can be created by pairing the key "Key" and the value. In this case, the comment line may be described in a predetermined format in which the type and value of the data can be specified.

For example, with respect to predetermined items regarding the material or processed product to be processed, the predetermined item regarding the material or processed product to be processed may be set as "Key" and the data may be set as "Value". Regarding the file ID and file name, items such as file ID and file name may be set to "Key", and the file ID and file name may be set to "Value". For example, the JSON format may be used for the data format in which the key "Key" and the value are paired. Here, the JSON format is a format in which an item name and a value are paired with a colon ":". The data in which the key "Key" and the value are paired is not limited to the JSON format. A format that can specify the type and value of the data can be widely adopted for the comment line. For example, the comment line may be described in a format such as XML.

<Processing information PI>
Here, the data of predetermined items regarding the material to be processed or the processed product is appropriately referred to as processing information PI. The processing information PI may, for example, include at least information on the material to be processed, and may appropriately include other information.

<Items of processing information PI>
Examples of data items included in the processing information PI include the following items.
・ Material ID
-Type of material to be processed-Product name of material to be processed-Size of material to be processed-Shape of material to be processed (Disc / Block / etc ...)
・ Area of use of the material to be processed (what percentage of the total is used, etc.)
-List of processed product information included in the processed file

Here, the "material ID" is set for each material so that the material to be processed is specified in advance. In addition, the work piece includes a material in use, a so-called used material, and in that case, it may also be referred to as a "used material ID".
As the "type of material to be processed", for example, a ceramic material (for example, a zirconia ceramic material), a resin material, a glass material, a metal material, a wax material and the like are described.
The "product name of the material to be processed" is the product name when the work piece is a commercially available product.
The size of the work piece is recorded in "Size of material to be processed".
In "Shape of material to be processed", the shape of the work piece is described as Disc / Block /.
The "use area of the material to be processed" is, for example, data indicating what percentage of the total material is used by what is processed by the processing data. From such data, it is possible to grasp how much of one material is used by the processing. In addition, the material cost required for processing can be calculated from such data.
The "list of information on the processed product included in the processed file" includes information on the processed product to be processed in the processing program CP. The information included in such a list includes, for example, the file name of the STL file in which the three-dimensional data of the processed product is recorded, the type of the processed product (Crown, Bridge, etc ...), and the processed product formed by the processing program CP. Number of teeth, number of teeth to which tooth filling as a processed product is attached, etc. As described above, the processed product of the dental processing machine 1 can be a dental prosthesis such as "inlay" and "crown". Predetermined items for the work piece may include, for example, information on the dental prosthesis such as "inlay" and "crown".

The CAM software may be further programmed so that a comment line containing a file name (Milling File Name) and a cutting file ID (Milling File ID) of the cutting file is inserted into the machining program CP.

<File name of cutting file>
Here, the file name of the cutting file is the file name given to the cutting file 21a in the device 21 in which the CAM software is incorporated. In the device 21 in which the CAM software is incorporated, the cutting file 21a is managed by such a file name.

<Cutting file ID>
As the cutting file ID, a cutting file ID is assigned to each cutting file 21a. Therefore, even if the cutting files 21a have the same file name, they are distinguished as different cutting files 21a depending on the cutting file ID.

The CAM software may be programmed to prepare a cutting file ID for specifying the machining program and insert a comment line in which the cutting file ID is described into the machining program CP. At this time, the CAM software may be programmed to insert a comment line in which the file name is described into the machining program CP in addition to the cutting file ID. FIG. 3 is a diagram showing an example of a machining program CP in which the comment line S1 is inserted. For example, as shown in FIG. 3, it is programmed to insert a comment line in which the file name of the cutting file, the cutting file ID, and the machining information PI are described in the machining program CP. Even if the CAM software is programmed so that the file name and cutting file ID of the cutting file are described in a comment line different from the comment line in which the machining information PI is described and inserted into the machining program CP. Good.

Such comment line insertion processing may be configured so that, for example, the CAM software is executed when the processing program CP is output to a predetermined storage area. In this case, the machining program CP output from the CAM always includes a comment line in which the file name of the cutting file, the cutting file ID, and the machining information PI are described. Then, a unique cutting file ID is assigned to the machining program CP. Therefore, one machining program CP is specified from the cutting file ID. The storage area to which the processing program CP is output may be a predetermined storage area of the device 21 in which the CAM software is incorporated, or may be a predetermined storage area of the operation device 11. The predetermined storage area may be a USB memory attached to the operating device 11 or a predetermined storage area of an external storage device such as a hard disk drive (HDD). Further, a predetermined storage area of an external server may be used by using cloud computing.

For example, the cutting file 21a includes a machining program CP in which a machining procedure executed by the dental machining machine 1 is defined. In the device 21 in which the CAM software is incorporated, the machining program CP may be edited and updated while the file name of the cutting file 21a remains the same. Even in this case, when the CAM software outputs the machining program CP to a predetermined storage area, a cutting file ID is assigned and a comment line in which the cutting file ID is described is inserted into the machining program CP. Therefore, the cutting file ID specifies at what timing the cutting file is sent to the operating device 11.

Then, the machining program CP of the cutting file specified by the cutting file ID is also specified. In addition, a comment line in which data of predetermined items for the material or the work piece processed by the processing program are described is also inserted in the processing program CP.

In this case, different materials may be processed using the same processing program CP. In such a case, in the apparatus 21 in which the CAM software is incorporated, it is preferable that different data are prepared for predetermined items of the material or the processed product processed by the processing program. For example, in the process of inserting a comment line into a machining program, it is preferable that the data of a predetermined item for the material or the work piece processed by the machining program and the machining program CP are stored in association with each other. The CAM software may be programmed to insert a comment line containing data of predetermined items about the material or work piece processed by the processing program into the associated processing program CP.

Further, in this embodiment, the file name of the cutting file and the cutting file ID are added to the comment line of the machining program CP stored in the operating device 11. The file name and cutting file ID of the cutting file are configured to be added to the comment line of the machining program CP in the device 21 in which the CAM software is incorporated, for example. In this case, since the cutting file ID is written in the machining program CP, the machining program CP and the cutting file ID are surely linked. Further, the operating device 11 that has received the machining program CP can identify the cutting file ID of the machining program CP by analyzing the machining program CP by a predetermined method.

As described above, in this embodiment, the cutting file 21a including the machining program CP is sent from the device 21 in which the CAM software is incorporated to the operating device 11. At this time, the machining program CP described in the cutting file 21a has a comment line S1 in which the file ID and the machining information PI are described, as shown in FIG. In this case, since the machining program CP has a comment line S1 in which the file ID and the machining information PI are described, it is not necessary to separately link the file ID and the machining information PI to the machining program CP. Further, the machining program CP is sent from the operating device 11 to the dental machining machine 1. The operating device 11 and the dental processing machine 1 include a processing unit configured to obtain data of predetermined items about the material to be processed or the processed product and a cutting file ID from the comment line of the processing program CP. It is good to have. As a result, in the operating device 11 and the dental processing machine 1, data of predetermined items about the material to be processed or the processed product and the cutting file ID can be obtained from the comment line of the processing program CP.

Therefore, in the operating device 11 and the dental processing machine 1, the cutting is performed by using the data of predetermined items about the material to be processed or the processed product obtained from the comment line of the processing program CP and the cutting file ID. Log data including the file ID can be created. In addition, it is possible to record data of predetermined items about the material or the processed product processed by the processing program CP.

<Job ID>
In this embodiment, a job ID is further assigned to the machining program CP. Here, the job ID is an ID assigned when the machining program CP is sent from the operating device 11 to the dental machining machine 1. Here, as the job ID, a job ID different from the cutting file ID is prepared in order to specify the machining program CP sent to the dental machining machine 1. The job ID may be created by the operating device 11 or the dental processing machine 1.

That is, each time the machining program CP is sent from the operating device 11 to the dental machining machine 1, a different job ID is assigned to the machining program CP. Such a job ID is different from the cutting file ID. Therefore, even if the cutting file ID is the same machining program CP, for example, when the same machining program CP is retransmitted from the operating device 11 to the dental machining machine 1, a different job ID is assigned. In this case, in this embodiment, the comment line of the machining program CP includes the file ID and the machining information PI. Even in the machining program CP including the same file ID and machining information PI, the job IDs are different when retransmitted. In this way, when the same machining program CP is retransmitted from the operating device 11 to the dental processing machine 1, the retransmitted machining program CP can be distinguished by the job ID. In this way, both the cutting file ID and the job ID prepared separately from the cutting file ID are assigned to each machining program CP sent to the dental machining machine 1. Therefore, the machining program CP sent to the dental machining machine 1 can be specified by both the cutting file ID and the job ID. Thereby, the machining program CP executed by the dental machining machine 1 can be specified in more detail.

In this embodiment, the file name, the file ID, and the processing information PI can be acquired by analyzing the comment line S1 (see FIG. 3) of the processing program CP. Therefore, in the dental processing machine 1, the file name, the file ID, and the processing information PI can be acquired. Further, a job ID is assigned when the machining program CP is sent from the operating device 11 to the dental machining machine 1. Further, the operation device 11 can create a job list JL in which the machining program CP is distinguished by a job ID. Similarly, in the dental processing machine 1, a job list JL in which the processing program CP is distinguished by a job ID can be created. Then, when the dental processing machine 1 executes the processing program CP, the log data including the job ID may be configured to be sent to the operation device 11. The log data including the job ID may be created by the operating device 11 based on the data sent from the dental processing machine 1 to the operating device 11. As a result, the operation device 11 can manage the log data based on the job ID and create a log file LF including the job ID.

<Job list JL>
FIG. 4 is a diagram showing an example of the job list JL.
The operating device 11 sends a machining program CP to the dental machining machine 1. The operation device 11 creates a job list JL for the machining program CP sent to the dental machine 1. As shown in FIG. 4, the job list JL is associated with the machining program CP sent from the operating device 11 to the dental machine 1 and the order in which the machining program CP is executed by the dental machine 1. It should be a list. In the job list JL shown in FIG. 4, columns 201 to 205 in which the execution order, machining program CP, cutting file ID, job ID, and status are recorded are provided in order.

For example, in this embodiment, the machining program CP is executed in the dental machine 1 in the order of being sent from the operating device 11 to the dental machine 1. In this case, in the column 201 in which the execution order is recorded and the column 202 in which the machining program CP is recorded, a job list JL in which the machining program CPs are arranged in the order sent by the operating device 11 to the dental machine 1 is displayed. It should be created. The cutting file ID and the job ID are recorded in the fields 203 and 204 in which the file ID and the job ID are recorded, respectively. In the column 205 in which the status is recorded, the status regarding the execution of the machining program CP may be recorded in accordance with the data communication with the dental machine 1. The status may be recorded with a predetermined code number. Further, in this embodiment, when the machining program CP is sent from the operating device 11 to the dental machine 1, a job ID for specifying the machining program CP is assigned. The timing at which the job ID is assigned may be the timing at which the job list JL is created.

<Log file LF>
In this embodiment, the dental processing machine 1 creates a log file LF in which the log data of the processing program CP is recorded in the operating device 11. The log data is data that records what was or could not be executed by the machining program CP. In the log file LF, for example, start, stop, interruption, restart, stop, end, and the time of execution are recorded as log data. Further, if an error occurs while the machining program CP is being executed, a predetermined error code is recorded. The operation device 11 may be configured to create a log file LF based on the data obtained by communicating with the dental processing machine 1.

FIG. 5 is a diagram showing an example of the log file LF. In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 5, the log file LF1 contains the time, model name, serial number, device name, file ID, job ID, event ID, parameter 1, and parameter 2 with respect to the log data. There are columns 301 to 309 in which the data is recorded.

Of these, in column 301 where the time is recorded, the time when the log data was acquired is recorded. The model name, serial number, and device name recorded in columns 302 to 304 are information for identifying the dental processing machine 1. These are added to the log data by, for example, the firmware 1a3 of the dental processing machine 1. The file ID and job ID are recorded in the fields 305 and 306 in which the file ID and job ID are recorded, respectively.

<Event ID>
In the column 307 in which the event ID is recorded, a predetermined code is recorded for an event such as start, stop, interruption, restart, cancellation, end, and error of execution. Information associated with the event is recorded in the columns 308 and 309 in which the parameters 1 and 2 are recorded, respectively. In FIG. 5, a number is assigned to the left side of the log data for convenience in order to distinguish the log data.

FIG. 6 is an example of a code table recorded in the event ID. Of these, JobStart (start), JobEnd (end), JobPause (pause), JobResume (resume), JobCancel (cancel), DiscGet (disc get), DiscRelease (disc release), ToolGet (tool get), ToolRelease (tool release) ), ToolReplace, FatalError (fatal error), RecoverableError (recoverable error), ResumableError (resumable error). Parameters 1 and 2 indicate the information recorded in the log data associated with each event. In the log data, the data corresponding to the parameters 1 and 2 is referenced from other data and recorded.

Therefore, in the log file LF of FIG. 5, the log data in which the machining (job) by the series of machining programs CP is executed is recorded in the log data Nos. 2 to 9. Here, in the dental processing machine 1, each time of start, disc get, tool get, occurrence of resumable error, tool release, stop, disc release, and end is recorded in order. In the log data Nos. 10 to 21, and in the log data from Nos. 22, log data in which other jobs are executed are recorded. Each job is specified by a job ID. The processing program CP is specified by the file ID.

A similar log file LF1 may be created in the firmware 1a3 of the dental processing machine 1. In such a case, the operating device 11 may be configured to acquire the log file LF1 created by the firmware 1a3 of the dental processing machine 1. In the present specification, for convenience of explanation, the log file created by the dental processing machine 1 is referred to as "log file LF1" as appropriate. The log file recorded by the operating device 11 is referred to as "log file LF". This distinguishes between the two.

<Processing information data PD>
FIG. 7 is a diagram showing an example of processing information data PD. The machining information data PD is acquired from the job ID and the comment line S1 (see FIG. 3) of the machining program CP. The processing information data PD is a data file including a file ID and a data group including data of predetermined items for the material or processed product to be processed.

The processing information data PD shown in FIG. 7 includes recording fields 501 to 504 for sequentially recording a user ID, a job ID, processing information, and processing results. Here, the user ID is an ID assigned to the user who manages the dental processing machine 1. The user ID can be included in, for example, a part of the log data sent from the dental processing machine 1. Further, the job ID is recorded in the recording field 502 for recording the job ID. In the record field 503 for recording the machining information, the data acquired by analyzing the comment line S1 of the machining program CP is recorded.

In this embodiment, the record field 503 for recording machining information contains a data group including data of a file name, a cutting file ID, a material to be machined, or a predetermined item for the work piece. These data groups may be described in, for example, the JSON format. In the record field 504 for recording the machining result, it is preferable that the result of executing the machining program CP from the log data specified based on the job ID is recorded. In the example shown in FIG. 7, for example, the result of executing the machining program CP with a predetermined code number is recorded.

From the processing information data PD, the processing (job) of the dental processing machine 1 can be specified by the job ID, and the data group recorded in the comment line S1 (see FIG. 3) of the processing program CP executed in the job. Can be obtained. FIG. 8 is a diagram showing an example of data acquired from the comment line S1. From the comment line S1, as shown in FIG. 8, the processing information PI including the file name and file ID of the cutting file 21a and the data of predetermined items regarding the material or the processed product to be processed is provided. To be acquired. Such data is acquired every time the dental processing machine 1 executes the processing program CP, in other words, for each job specified by the job ID.

As a result, each time the dental processing machine 1 executes the processing program CP, data of predetermined items regarding the material to be processed or the processed product is recorded as a record. Therefore, more detailed data analysis can be performed every time the dental processing machine 1 executes the processing program CP, in other words, for each job specified by the job ID. Further, since the data of the predetermined item about the material to be processed or the processed product is included for each job specified by the job ID, for example, the material to be processed for each processing of the dental processing machine 1. You can calculate the cost for. In the dental processing machine 1, the tooth filling is cut. At this time, the tooth filling is a small one, and when a plurality of processed products (tooth filling) are processed from one workpiece held on the disk 1i1 (see FIG. 2) of the dental processing machine 1. There is. In addition, the tooth filling has a complicated shape, and it is difficult to determine how much the workpiece is used in the processed product. According to the method and apparatus proposed here, for each process of the dental processing machine 1, data of predetermined items regarding the material or the processed product to be processed is included. Therefore, more detailed data analysis can be performed on the material to be processed. Since such a data group is acquired from the data described in the comment line S1 of the machining program CP, it is not changed after being output from the CAM software. Therefore, it is difficult to mistake the data for each job specified by the job ID, and it becomes easy to manage the data.

In the operation system 10, the operation device 11 is connected to the server 12 so as to be capable of data communication. The operation device 11 sends the job list JL, the log file LF, the processing information data PD, and the like to the server 12.

The housing is configured so that the cover can be opened and closed as appropriate.

<Processing program CP1>
In this embodiment, the machining program CP1 is the same as the machining program CP described above, but a job ID is assigned when the machining program CP1 is sent from the operating device 11 to the dental machining machine 1 as described above. From this point of view, in the present specification, the machining program CP stored in the first storage unit 1a11 (see FIG. 2) of the dental machine 1 is appropriately referred to as “machining program CP1”.

<Job list JL1>
The job list JL1 is a list in which the order in which the dental processing machine 1 executes the processing program CP1 is defined as described above. Here, the order in which the machining program CP1 is executed is determined by the job list JL1. The order in which the machining program CP1 is executed is determined by the operating device 11. For example, the order in which the dental processing machine 1 executes the processing program CP1 may be determined in the order in which the operating device 11 sends the processing program CP1 to the dental processing machine 1. In this case, the job list JL1 in which the order in which the dental processing machine 1 executes the processing program CP1 is created in the order in which the operating device 11 sends the processing program CP1 to the dental processing machine 1.

The dental processing machine 1 creates a log file LF1 in which log data of a processing program is recorded. Here, in the log file LF1, for example, the start, stop, interruption, restart, stop, and end of the machining program recorded in the job list, and the time thereof are recorded. Further, when an error occurs during execution of the machining program recorded in the job list, a predetermined error code is recorded. In this embodiment, since the processing program CP1 sent to the dental processing machine 1 is given a job ID, the job ID may be included in the job list JL1 and the log data of the log file LF1.

<Firmware 1a3>
The firmware 1a3 controls the dental processing machine 1. The firmware 1a3 includes a processing module for executing each process of the processing unit 1a2 described above. Hereinafter, the functions of the firmware 1a3 of the dental processing machine 1 will be described. The firmware 1a3 may be programmed so that the following functions are realized as processing by a computer.

The firmware 1a3 communicates with the operating device 11 and stores the machining program CP1 in the first storage unit 1a11.
Firmware 1a3 creates job list JL1.
The firmware 1a3 sequentially executes the machining program CP1 stored in the first storage unit 1a11 according to the job list JL1 stored in the second storage unit 1a12.
Firmware 1a3 creates a log file LF1.

For example, the firmware 1a3 records the start time and the end time of the execution of the machining program CP1 in the log file LF1. Further, the timing when the tool is attached to the spindle 1c, the timing when the tool is returned to the tool magazine 1g, the timing when the disc 1i1 is gripped by the clamp 1d, the timing when the disc 1i1 is returned to the disc rack 1i, and the like. Record.

For example, the firmware 1a3 creates the job list JL1 so that the machining program CP1 is executed in the order in which the machining program CP1 is sent from the operating device 11 to the dental machine 1. As described above, when the job list JL1 is provided with a recording column, the status of the machining program CP1 is recorded in the recording column. In this case, the processing unit 1a2 of the dental processing machine 1 may be configured to execute the processing program CP1 in order according to the job list JL1. Instead of the job list JL1, the dental processing machine 1 may store a plurality of processing programs CP1 by associating the first storage unit 1a11 of the dental processing machine 1 with the order in which the dental processing machine 1 executes. Good.

The firmware 1a3 detects an error in the dental processing machine 1. When an error is detected, the firmware 1a3 is configured to execute a process according to the error. For example, when the firmware 1a3 detects an error, it executes a predetermined process based on the error code of the detected error. The firmware 1a3 temporarily stops the execution of the machining program CP1 based on the error code of the detected error. Next, based on the error code, it is determined whether or not the error can be self-repaired in the dental processing machine 1. Then, if the error can be self-repaired in the dental processing machine 1, the error is repaired. When the error is self-repaired and the error is resolved, the dental machine 1 is configured to resume execution of the machining program CP1. Further, based on the error code of the detected error, the dental processing machine 1 is stopped, and the origin regression processing for returning the dental processing machine 1 to a predetermined initial state is executed. Further, when the firmware 1a3 restarts the dental processing machine 1, the firmware 1a3 restarts the execution of the machining program CP1 by the dental processing machine 1 after executing the zero point correction in the initial state.

The firmware 1a3 notifies the operating device 11 of the data regarding the state of the dental processing machine 1. The data on the state of the dental processing machine 1 includes, for example, the times such as start, stop, interruption, restart, stop, and end of the processing program CP1, and the sensors 1k1 and the camera 1k2 provided in the dental processing machine 1. The data to be acquired and the error code are included. The firmware 1a3 sends these data to the operating device 11 at a predetermined timing. Further, the firmware 1a3 sends these data to the operating device 11 in response to a request from the operating device 11.

The dental processing machine 1 has a limited storage capacity. Therefore, the machining program CP1, the log file LF1, the job list JL1, and the like are appropriately deleted at a predetermined timing. For example, the log file LF1 may be deleted after the execution of the machining program CP1 is completed and the data when the machining program is executed is transmitted to the operating device 11.

In this embodiment, the machining program CP includes a comment line S1 in which a data group including data of a file ID and a predetermined item about the material or the workpiece to be machined is described. Therefore, the firmware 1a3 of the dental processing machine 1 analyzes the comment line S1 of the processing program CP and acquires a data group including data of a file ID and a predetermined item about the material to be processed or the processed product. Can be configured as Therefore, the file ID acquired from the comment line S1 of the processing program CP is appropriately included in the job list JL1 created by the dental processing machine 1 and the log data of the log file LF1. Further, in this embodiment, a job ID is assigned when the machining program CP is sent from the operating device 11 to the dental machining machine 1. Therefore, the job ID is appropriately included in the log data of the job list JL1 and the log file LF1.
