Abstract

A laser beam machine includes a number of laser modules that each generate a laser beam and a combiner that collects a plurality of laser beams generated from the laser modules to output one laser beam. The laser beam machine further includes a plurality of driving power supplies that supply power to the laser modules, respectively, a calculation device that calculates a driving condition for each of the laser modules according to a received machining condition, and a power-supply control apparatus that causes the driving power supplies to supply power to the laser modules in accordance with the driving condition. The calculation device controls the power-supply control apparatus to reduce differences in integrated laser-output times of the laser beams generated by the laser modules.
