To allow an optimal work procedure using a processing machine to be automatically generated irrespective of whether or not an operator has experience relating thereto, provided is a process schedule support apparatus (20), which supports creation of control data on a processing machine, including: a removal area calculation unit (22) configured to calculate a removal area based on a difference between a product shape and a material shape; a divided area calculation unit (23) configured to generate a divided area by dividing the removal area based on a movable range of each processing machine being a candidate for performing work for removing the removal area; a tool path calculation unit (24) configured to generate tool paths, which are used to remove the divided area by respective processing machines, for each divided area; and a processing time calculation unit (25) configured to calculate a combination of the tool paths so that a time period for removing all the divided areas becomes minimum. |
