1. An assistance device for determining machining conditions of a workpiece in an industrial machine that machines the workpiece based on a machining program, the assistance device comprising:
a processor; and
a memory;
wherein the processor is configured to:
store, in the memory, verification results verifying the machining conditions by a plurality of verification functions to be associated with the machining program;
determine whether each verification result satisfies a shape target value of the workpiece;
present to an operator of the machine a correction of the machining conditions determined by the processor based on machining condition-related information related to the machining conditions of the workpiece, the verification result, and the verification function, in a case of any of respective verification results not satisfying the shape target values of the workpiece;
store the verification function corresponding to the verification result not satisfying the shape target value of the workpiece, and information including advice to the operator prompting correction by the operator of the machining conditions corresponding to this verification function, as machining condition-related information; and
when any of the respective verification results do not satisfy the shape target values of the workpiece, present to the operator the correction of the machining conditions based on the verification functions corresponding to the verification results not satisfying the shape target values of the workpiece, and information prompting correction by the operator of the machining conditions corresponding to the verification functions;
wherein the information prompting correction of the machining condition comprises information prompting setting and adjustment of a CNC (computerized numerical control) control; and
the information prompting setting and adjustment of the CNC control includes enabling a smoothing function of machining, decreasing acceleration and deceleration of the machining speed, and decreasing a speed difference at corner parts.
