Measuring apparatus and measuring method

Abstract

In acquiring measurement data from machine tools, the measurable objects are restricted according to the user's permissions. The measuring device is a measuring apparatus that acquires data from a machine tool from a numerical control device, and includes: a user information input unit for inputting user information; a memory unit for storing the measurable objects with each user's permissions; a permission determination unit for determining the user's permissions; a measurement object deletion unit for filtering measurement candidates based on the aforementioned measurable objects; a measurement object selection unit for selecting measurement objects from the aforementioned measurement candidates; an output unit for outputting information to an external device; and a communication unit for communicating with the aforementioned numerical control device and measuring the data.
