Abstract

A tool-path correcting apparatus includes a cut-point calculating unit that calculates, on the basis of tool path data, tool data, and shape data, cut point information, which is information concerning cut points by a tool on a machining curved surface of a machining shape at the time when the tool is disposed at command points described in the tool path data, a correction-command-point extracting unit that extracts, on the basis of the tool path data and the cut point information, correction command points, which are command points that should be corrected, from command points described in the tool path data, a command-point-correcting-direction determining unit that determines, on the basis of the correction command points, command point correcting directions, which are directions in which the correction command points should be corrected, and a tool-path-data correcting unit that corrects the tool path data.
