A program generation device generates a program for controlling machining of a groove which is performed by machining a plurality of holes on a workpiece. The program generation device receives specified values including a tool radius, a groove shape (a length of the groove), and a cusp height and calculates positions of the plurality of holes based on the specified values which are received. Then, the program generation device calculates a machining order of the plurality of holes based on the specified values and respective values calculated by a hole machining set value calculation unit so that a bias is not generated in a removal stock for a tool in machining.

An article processing apparatus (1) according to an embodiment discharges an article to a downstream apparatus (2) disposed downstream. The article processing apparatus includes: a display (110); a capturing unit (100) that captures a picture including at least part of the downstream apparatus; and a controller (30) that displays, in a case where a processing operation of the article remains stopped in the article processing apparatus, on the display, the picture captured by the capturing unit.
