A production apparatus ensures wireless communication without interference. An antenna portion 310 at a robotic arm includes a transmitting antenna portion 311 having a plurality of transmitting antennas 321 to 328 and a receiving antenna portion 312 having a plurality of receiving antennas 331 to 338. A transmitting side switcher circuit 361 changes over a transmitting antenna to be connected to a transmitter 351 among the plurality of transmitting antennas 321 to 328 in conjunction with an attitude information of the robotic arm, and changes an effective direction of a directional characteristic of the transmitting antenna portion 311. A receiving side switcher circuit 362 changes over a receiving antenna to be connected to a receiver 352 among the plurality of receiving antennas 331 to 338 in conjunction with the attitude information of the robotic arm and changes the effective direction of the directional characteristic of the receiving antenna portion 312.
