Title:
LASER MACHINING APPARATUS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2008/001808
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Detection of the three-dimensional shape of a work, enhancement of the precision
of the focal point position of a machining laser beam, and compaction of a laser
beam machining apparatus are realized. The laser beam machining apparatus
(10) operates as follows. While a laser beam output section driver (46) is moving
a work (12) from a position near a laser beam output section (22) to a far position,
the work (12) is sequentially imaged with a camera (34). Best focused point detection
data is extracted from pixels in positions corresponding to best focused point
detection positions (P1-n) predetermined in the captured images.
A best focused point detection waveform (W) based on the variation of the best
focused point detection data is formed for each best focused point detection
position (P1-n). The peak values (PK) of the best focused detection
waveforms (W) in the best focused detection positions (P1-n) determined
from the best focused detection waveforms (W) are compared with one another so
as to judge the acceptance/rejection of the work (12). If the work is acceptable,
the laser beam output section (22) is moved to the best focused position to perform
laser beam machining; contrarily if the work is rejected, the laser beam is not
emitted.
