Abstract

A machining region data creation apparatus and a machining region data creation method simplifying provision of machining information concerning multiple boring regions. In the machining region data creation apparatus decoding inputted three-dimensional shape data to create machining data for machining a work piece based on the decoding result, a boring region extraction unit receives three-dimensional finish shape data and extracts shapes of boring regions based on the three-dimensional finish shape data, a boring region analysis unit analyzes the shapes and the features of the boring regions based on three-dimensional shape data of each boring region, and a boring region classification unit classifies the boring regions based on the shapes and the features of the boring regions.
