  • Patent number: 7477955
    Abstract: An object of the present invention enables provision of an optimum shape design method in which an optimum shape of a cushioning material used in cushioning packaging can easily and adequately be designed, and an optimum shape design system in which the optimum shape design method is used. In a configuration of the optimum shape design system is characterized by providing an optimizing control unit 2a. The optimizing control unit 2a detects a correlation among CAD data M of a cushioning material 4 defined by a CAD unit 2b, a mechanical response amount detected by a mechanical response amount calculation unit 2c, manufacturing decision information detected by a manufacturing decision detection unit 2d, and manufacturing cost information detected by a cost calculation unit 2e. Then, the optimizing control unit 2a updates the CAD data M of the cushioning material 4 until an optimum shape of the cushioning material 4 is detected based on the correlation.
