Assistance system, assistance program, and control method

An assistance program of an assistance system that includes a processor, receives model data of an article from a client terminal, and assists setting of a machining condition of the article,

• the assistance program causing the processor to:
• specify a first welding portion of the article from the model data according to a first condition among a plurality of priority conditions in manufacturing the article, and specify a second welding portion of the article from the model data according to a second condition different from the first condition among the plurality of priority conditions;
• generate a first machining pattern image of the article in which the first welding portion is indicated and a second machining pattern image of the article in which the second welding portion is indicated;
• and
• provide a client terminal with the first machining pattern image and the second machining pattern image.

A control method of an assistance system that includes a processor, receives model data of an article from a client terminal and assists setting of a machining condition of the article, the control method comprising the steps of:

• Specifying, by the processor, a first welding portion of the article from the model data according to a first condition among a plurality of priority conditions in manufacturing the article, and specifying, by the processor, a second welding portion of the article from the model data according to a second condition different from the first condition among the plurality of priority conditions;
• generating, by the processor, a first machining pattern image of the article in which the first welding portion is indicated and a second machining pattern image of the article in which the second welding portion is indicated;
• and
• providing, by the processor, a client terminal with the first machining pattern image and the second machining pattern image.
