Abstract
A chamfering apparatus includes: a laser beam transmissive member allowing a laser beam to be transmitted therethrough and contacting one surface of a workpiece, the laser beam transmissive member including an inclined surface that is inclined in an opposite direction to a chamfering direction relative to the one surface in a state where the laser beam transmissive member is in contact with the one surface; and a laser machining head configured to emit an ultrashort pulse laser beam for forming a laser filament inside an edge portion to the inclined surface of the laser beam transmissive member. The ultrashort pulse laser beam is transmitted through the laser beam transmissive member, incident on the one surface of the workpiece from the laser beam transmissive member, transmitted through the edge portion in the chamfering direction, and forms a laser filament inside the edge portion, the laser filament extending in the chamfering direction.
