Abstract: A device even at the time of initial planning of plant design easily and rapidly generates three-dimensional arrangement adjustment CAD data which describes a route for arrangement of cable housing components. An area generation section 410 generates a prescribed rectangular parallelepiped area from the minimum and maximum coordinates. A cable information acquisition section 420 acquires information relating to cables such as cable specifications, starting point information, and end point information. A route generation section 430 generates a cable housing component route between a starting point area and an end point area through via areas. A route consolidation section 440 consolidate into a single route any route having the same cable specification, starting point information, via information, and end point information. A three-dimensional model conversion section 480 adds a prescribed width and height to the consolidated route to generate a three-dimensional cable housing component route model.

Abstract: To make possible using three-dimensional data of electric cable housing components to automatically generate and output a drawing that is simple and useful as two-dimensional data for clearly representing the relationship between upper and lower components. Determination controller 121 of two-dimensional data generation unit 120 converts three-dimensional data of electric cable housing components, which is read by the data reading part 122, into a line segment for each component by diagram generation part 123, and converts a contact part between components or a part where components partially overlap with each other, into an intersection point, to generate a diagram composed of the line segment and intersection point. Determination controller 121, by coplanarization part 125, shifts line segments of a plurality of components that overlap vertically on the diagram onto a single plane, and slides the line segments at a predetermined interval to represent the vertical overlap on the plane.

Abstract: In three-dimensional data generation unit 120, data edition unit 122, generates a spreadsheet data that includes information relating to a plurality of node points on a continuous arrangement route of target components by interactive process with a user, and stores the data in storage unit 130. Three-dimensional data conversion unit 123, on the basis of spreadsheet data, arranges the node points in a three-dimensional space, connects node points having a predetermined relationship using line segments, and imparts cross-sectional shapes to the connected line segments, to carry out thereby conversion into target component arrangement three-dimensional data. Three-dimensional data management unit 124 stores the obtained target component arrangement three-dimensional data in storage unit 130, in a format readable by three-dimensional CAD or three-dimensional review system, and outputs the data in response to an output instruction from interface unit 110.

Abstract: An optimum route searching apparatus, method and recording medium make it possible to obtain the optimum cable laying route in a short period of time. The optimum route searching apparatus includes an external storage device for storing search data comprising information related to a route that has a node as a connection point; a simplification device for creating simplified data by extracting information related to a node constituting a branching point, a bending point and a terminal point; a connection information creation device for creating a connection information file of cable laying route based on the simplified data; and a searching device for searching for an optimum cable laying route candidate based on the connection information file. The search termination determination determines search termination for all routes in accordance with the route of interconnected nodes from the start point to either the end point or the dead end having been written to all cards by a card writing device.
