Abstract

Provided are a processing device, program, and processing method which can prevent a tool or the like from causing interference when changing the direction of the tool with respect to an inclined plane. A processing device according to an embodiment comprises a calculation unit and a determination unit. The calculation unit calculates one or more combinations of angles at which the tool, which has a plurality of rotational axes where it is possible to change the orientation of the tool, is a prescribed angle relative to a plane. In order to set the rotational axes to any one of the combinations calculated by the calculation unit, the determination unit determines in which direction and how many times to rotate each of the plurality of rotational axes in accordance with an instruction indicating in which direction to rotate at least one of the rotational axes, and such that the movement amount or movement time of the rotation of the rotation axes is minimum.
