Abstract: A control data creation device includes a specifying unit configured to change suction positions at which carrying-out arms suction a product P by moving the carrying-out arms on product data so as to specify an index for evaluating a suction state for each of the suction positions, and a layout setting unit configured to create control data in which the suction position is laid out to the product P based on each index specified for each of the suction positions.

Abstract: A lay-out data creation device includes a laying-out unit configured to lay out, based on product data including a shape of a product, a cutting path through which a processing machine for laser cutting cuts the product from a material. The laying-out unit: in a case where a notch is included in an outline of the product, sets a joint to the product or an offcut the joint being for connecting a hole area including the notch in an outline of the hole area; and lays out the cutting path to the outline of the hole area and the outline of the product excluding the notch so that a part of the outline of the hole area is left uncut depending on the joint.

Abstract: A laser processing path laying-out method includes laying out, to a part of a notch of nesting data, as a partial processing path in a notch formation processing path, an open path for cutting to an inner side of a product, excluding a line segment of the part of the notch in an outer peripheral end portion of the product. The laser processing path laying-out method further includes laying out an outer peripheral path obtained by coupling a first outer peripheral processing path for cutting a line segment of the part of the notch in the outer peripheral end portion, which is a remaining partial processing path in the notch formation processing path, and a second outer peripheral processing path for cutting at least a part of a line segment other than the part of the notch in the outer peripheral end portion.
