The present invention aims to improve accuracy of a planar manufacturing drawing used to instruct manufacture of a three-dimensional structure in a planar form. According to path plan information is acquired by a path plan information acquisition unitand manufacturing requirement information is acquired by a manufacturing requirement information acquisition unit, a layout configuration production unitproduces a layout configuration model in which the three-dimensional structure is laid out in a planar manner based on a manufacture layout and distortion of the wire harness. Then, a simulation unitsimulates a transformation from the layout configuration model to the mounting configuration model with which the three-dimensional structure is mounted to a mount object. Then, an evaluation item evaluating unitevaluates a predetermined evaluation item by comparing the simulation result and the three-dimensional structure indicated by the path plan information. Then, an evaluation result information output unitoutputs the evaluation result to support path designing of the three-dimensional structure and/or production of the planar manufacturing drawing.

Information with regard to each finished part model is transmitted from a part design terminalto an exclusive serverat each time of finishing each part model formed in steps for designing a part. Further, the information with regard to the each part model is acquired by making access to the exclusive serverfrom a die design terminal. Therefore, tasks with regard to designing the die can be progressed in parallel based on the acquired information without awaiting for finishing all of the respective part models for designing the die.

A wire harness wiring path design aiding apparatus and method. The apparatus includes a device for storing data of a minimum bending radius of the wire harness and a device for checking if the designed wiring path is valid by comparing wire harness wiring path data with the minimum bending radius data. If it is determined that the designed wiring path does not meet minimum the bending radius requirement, the CAD system outputs data representative of a corrected wiring path taking the minimum bending radius data into consideration.
