- Such machines usually have one
- Machine control by means of which the operation of the processing device based on
- Processing data is controlled.
- the machine control is usually operated and monitored by an operator. Here are significant non-productive times, since the
- the invention is based on the idea of operating a processing machine spatially from the actual
- the invention provides that in a system for
- control device Machining of workpieces, the control device
- an operator need not be present at the processing device for monitoring the processing device, but can move away completely free of the processing device and perform other value-adding activities. At the same time, however, the operator can also exercise their monitoring activities, since
- Condition information of the processing device are always available at the terminal, for example in the form of a mere display or an active notification or
- the system has a plurality of terminals and / or several
- Production efficiency Depending on the design of the system, for example, an operator can be put in the position to monitor several processing devices at the same time and possibly also to operate. In this case, the system can also, for example, a processing order or
- Display terminal which leads to further efficiency improvements. Furthermore, it is also possible with this concept to integrate several terminals or operators, so that depending on the orientation of the system, either a particularly short reaction time of an operator to status information of the system is achieved, or a particularly effective
- the at least one terminal can be a stationary terminal that is placed at a suitable location, for example, at a location where an operator can perform efficiency-enhancing activities.
- at least one terminal is mobile. This gives the respective operator maximum flexibility for the exercise of their activity, so that the
- Processing devices of advantage in which case also one or more processing devices
- the at least one terminal has means for carrying the terminal on the body of an operator, in particular on the arm or in the head area. This results in an effortless

- touch screen Alternatively or
- Motion detection means are gesture detection means, in which the operator can enter information into the at least one terminal by a mere movement of a body part. Another type of one
- Motion detection means is a so-called virtual touch screen, in which a virtual image is generated or projected in the field of view of the operator and a
- Movement of the user is related to the virtual or projected image in order to effect an information input.
- any information from at least one terminal can be transmitted to at least one control device by means of the information input means. According to one embodiment of the invention, however,
- At least one control device is set up to receive, via the data transmission interface, control commands for the respective processing device that are connected to at least one terminal of one Operator were entered. This results in a further increase in operating efficiency, since the
