  • the cutting speed may be reduced at the corner of the region to be cut, or the corner may be intentionally rounded. Even if the cutting speed is reduced at the corner, even if the corner is rounded, at the corner, the beam spot Bs is vibrated with a vibration pattern including a vibration component in a direction orthogonal to the cutting progress direction. If the kerf width formed on the sheet metal W is widened, it is within the scope of the present invention.

Abstract

La machine de traitement au laser selon l'invention est dotée d'un mécanisme de vibration de faisceau permettant de faire vibrer un point de faisceau (Bs) sur une surface d'un métal en feuille (W). La machine de traitement au laser découpe à partir du métal en feuille (W) une région devant être découpée (produit 200) présentant une partie de coin (C1) tout en pulvérisant le métal en feuille (W) avec un gaz d'assistance. Un dispositif de commande commande le mécanisme de vibration de faisceau de manière à amener le point de faisceau (Bs) à vibrer sur au moins une première distance (distance L2) après que le point de faisceau (Bs) a atteint la partie de coin (C1) selon un motif de vibration incluant une composante de vibration dans une direction perpendiculaire à une direction de progression de découpe.
