A laser beam processing machine comprising a chuck table for holding a workpiece, a laser beam application means for applying a laser beam to the workpiece held on the chuck table, and a processing-feed means for moving the chuck table and the laser beam application means relative to each other, wherein the condenser of the laser beam application means comprises a first prism for dividing the laser beam oscillated from the laser beam oscillation means into a first laser beam and a second laser beam both having a semicircular section and interchanging the first laser beam and the second laser beam, a second prism for correcting the optical paths of the first laser beam and the second laser beam formed by the first prism to become parallel each other, and an image forming lens for forming respective spots of the first laser beam and the second laser beam whose optical paths have been corrected to be parallel each other by the second prism, into images of spots having linear portions on the outer sides and arcuate portions on the inner sides.
