A scrap removal device for a laser processing device includes a gas deflector having an optical channel; a looped gas channel; and a looped gas outlet. The looped gas outlet is connected to the looped gas channel, the optical channel is configured for a laser beam to transmit through, the looped gas channel surrounds the optical channel, and a section of the looped gas channel close to the looped gas outlet is inclined. The scrap removal device further includes a gas source furnished on the gas deflector and in communication with the looped gas channel for providing a gas flow to flow into the looped gas channel. The gas flow is joined with the laser beam transmitting along a looped processing path when flowing out of the gas deflector through the looped gas channel and the looped gas outlet.

This disclosure provides a device for heating to generate a uniform molten pool, including: a source unit for generating an energy beam; a beam expanding/reducing unit positioned in an energy path of the energy beam for adjusting the diameter of the energy beam; a flat-top conical lens set positioned in the energy path and including at least two flat-top axicons, with the beam expanding/reducing unit positioned between the source unit and the flat-top conical lens set; and a focusing lens positioned in the energy path, with the flat-top conical lens set between the beam expanding/reducing unit and the focusing lens, and the energy beam being focused by the focusing lens. This disclosure generates a uniform molten pool to prevent vaporization splash due to overheating of the material during melting.
