CUTTING SYSTEM
FIG3 is a plan view of a workpiece to which an adapter is attached according to the embodiment
The first cutting machines 20A and 20B are each a device that accommodates a plurality of workpieces 5 (see FIG3), selects one of the workpieces 5 accommodated therein, and cuts the selected workpiece 5. The second cutting machines 20C and 20D are each a device that cuts one workpiece 5 accommodated therein. For example, the cutting machines 20A to 20D each machine a workpiece 5 to produce a dental prosthesis. The shape of the workpiece 5 is a circular plate shape, for example. The workpiece 5 is formed from any of various materials such as zirconia, wax, polymethylmethacrylate resin (PMMA), hybrid resin, PEEK (polyetheretherketone resin) and gypsum. When zirconia is used as the material of a workpiece 5, a semi-sintered zirconia is used, for example. Note however that there is no particular limitation on the shape and the material of the workpiece 5. As shown in FIG3, in the present embodiment, an adapter 8 (referred to also as a holder) is attached to the workpiece 5. The workpiece 5, with the adapter 8 attached thereto, is accommodated in and machined by the cutting machines 20A to 20D. Herein, an insertion hole 8a is formed in the central portion of the adapter 8. The workpiece 5 is attached to the adapter 8 as the workpiece 5 is inserted into the insertion hole 8a. In the following description, a workpiece 5 refers to a workpiece 5 that is attached to the adapter 8. A workpiece 5 includes, beside the workpiece 5, the adapter 8 attached to the workpiece 5.

['1. A cutting system (10) comprising: a first cutting machine (20A,20B) that machines a workpiece (5) to produce a dental prosthesis; a second cutting machine (20C,20D) that machines a workpiece (5) to produce a dental prosthesis; a display device (70) that displays first model information of the first cutting machine (20A,20B) and second model information of the second cutting machine (20C,20D); and a controller (54) that is connected to the first cutting machine (20A,20B) and the second cutting machine (20C,20D) and transmits job data for the dental prosthesis to the first cutting machine (20A,20B) and the second cutting machine (20C,20D), wherein the controller (54) includes: a first display controller (56) that displays a basic screen (72X) on the display device (70), the basic screen (72X) including a common area (74) where a first screen (75) showing some of common items that are common between the first model information and the second model information is displayed, and a specific area (90) where a second screen (91) showing some other ones of the common items that are common between the first model information and the second model information or a second screen (91) showing the other ones of the common items and specific items included in one of the first model information and the second model information is displayed; a second display controller (58) that displays the first screen (75) in the common area; a switcher (62) that switches between displaying the first model information and displaying the second model information on the basic screen (72X); and a third display controller (60) that displays the second screen (91) associated with the first cutting machine (20A,20B) in the specific area (90) when display is switched to the first model information, and that displays the second screen (91) associated with the second cutting machine (20C,20D) in the specific area (90) when display is switched to the second model information.']
