Abstract
A machining program generation device that generates a machining program for controlling a 3D printing apparatus to form an object by stacking a plurality of layers, includes: a machining route generation unit that extracts a plurality of support points that are based on an end point, an intersection point, and a bending point of the machining path from machining path data indicating a shape and a position of the machining path for forming each of the plurality of layers, and generates a machining route by adding, to the machining path, an order of shaping indicating that shaping of the support points is to be executed first and then shaping of a gap line segment connecting the plurality of support points shaped is to be executed; and a machining program generation unit that generates a machining program for controlling the 3D printing apparatus according to the machining route.
