Abstract

The present invention provides a workpiece contact state estimating device and a workpiece contact state estimation method to estimate an actual state of contact of a workpiece A with a peripheral object on the basis of a feasible contact acting force range, which is a feasible range of the value of a contact acting force (the force acting on a manipulator 1 generated by contact) prepared in advance for each of a plurality of types of contact states that are feasible as the states of contact of the workpiece A with the peripheral object, and a measurement value of the contact acting force at the time of contact of the workpiece A with the peripheral object.
