Description
This invention relates to a cosmetic manufacturing apparatus, a control method thereof, and a cosmetic manufacturing system. Cosmetics are used for beauty and skin health, and the consumer need to use cosmetics that suit their individual needs is increasing. To meet this need, various forms of user-friendly cosmetic manufacturing equipment have been proposed. Generally, cosmetic manufacturing equipment operates by measuring or diagnosing the user's skin condition, calculating the appropriate blending ratio of cosmetic ingredients based on that, and then mixing the ingredients accordingly to manufacture the cosmetic product. Recently, with technological advancements, such cosmetic manufacturing equipment has been proposed as automated devices in which a series of processes can be carried out sequentially. However, conventional cosmetic manufacturing equipment has the following problems: Conventional cosmetic manufacturing equipment takes a very long time to produce the desired cosmetic product. Furthermore, while cosmetic manufacturing equipment may be designed to continuously perform the process from measuring or diagnosing the user's skin condition to manufacturing the cosmetic, from the user's perspective, waiting for the cosmetic to be completed in front of the machine is simply a tedious process. Therefore, while one or two uses out of curiosity may be expected, the sustained utilization rate of cosmetic manufacturing equipment is likely to decrease. Furthermore, for cosmetics manufactured by a cosmetic manufacturing device to actually reach the user, the operator of the device must perform additional tasks such as attaching the lids to the cosmetic containers, attaching and lifting the dispensing components, and removing the cosmetic containers from the device and handing them over to the user. This presents an additional burden. Furthermore, while conventional cosmetic manufacturing equipment simply recommends composition ratios based on skin condition, no cosmetic manufacturing equipment has ever been proposed that recommends composition ratios while simultaneously considering individual user preferences for cosmetics (e.g., whether they prefer lighter colors) and skin condition.
