<p><P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a laser marking apparatus or the like capable of shortening the marking time for marking patterns by suppressing the waiting time due to the data generation processing. <P>SOLUTION: An initial part pattern to be marked first out of the marking pattern is determined, and the scheduled required time for the marking of the initial division pattern is calculated on the basis of the quantity of the line element to constitute the initial division pattern. The data generation processing is performed for the partial pattern of the quantity of the line element for which the data can be generated within the scheduled required time, and the scheduled processing time for the marking processing is calculated on the basis of the quantity of the line element to constitute the division pattern of the previous marking order for subsequent patterns. The data generation processing is successively executed for the partial pattern of the quantity of the line element for which the data can be generated within this scheduled required time. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI</p> |
