Abstract

A processing apparatus 1 includes: a workpiece-set-position recognition unit 114 that moves an arm distal-end portion to a specified position measurement point to measure a shape of a workpiece in a workpiece set state in which the workpiece is positioned by a workpiece positioning unit, and thereby recognizes a set position of the workpiece; a processing-point-information generation unit 115 that, based on the set position of the workpiece and processing-target-portion information 124 indicating a position of a target portion of the workpiece for specified processing, generates processing-point information 125 indicating a processing point which is a movement point of the arm distal-end portion to perform the specified processing on the workpiece using a processing tool in the workpiece set state; and a workpiece-processing control unit 116 that moves the arm distal-end portion to the processing point based on the processing-point information 125 to perform the specified processing on the workpiece using the processing tool.
