Laser beam machine

摘要

A laser beam machine for processing an article to be processed with a laser beam from a processing scanner 1 comprised of an optical system employing a laser oscillator 10 . Article position controllers 2 a and 2 b are controlled in a coordinated manner in accordance with the direction of the laser beam from said processing scanner 1 such that the position of a surface to be processed of the article is controlled to be nearly perpendicular to the direction of the laser beam from the processing scanner 1 . While an article to be processed mounted on one article position controller 2 a is being processed and unloaded, another article to be processed can be loaded onto the other article position controller 2 b. Thus, the wait time for the laser beam machine can be reduced and production efficiency can be improved.
