Abstract
In automatic programming for creating a multi-path program for a machine having a plurality of control paths performing one or more machining processes of a machining program for machining a workpiece, the machining time of each of the machining processes is calculated, workable paths are input for each of the machining processes, and then workable orders of the machining processes are input. For each of the machining processes, simultaneously workable machining processes are input if any among other machining processes. On the basis of the above results, machining programs that provide the shortest machining time are selected.
