Abstract
A control unit for determining a dynamic laser beam shape for controlling a laser cutting machine, which is provided with a dynamic beam shaping module for varying the shape of the laser beam. The control unit includes a cutting plan interface, which is configured for receiving a cutting plan, an interface to a shape storage with a stored set of dynamic laser beam shapes, in particular more than two, and a processor which is configured for automatically calculating for each of the cutting segments an allocation to a dynamic laser beam shape of the set of dynamic laser beam shapes, wherein calculating the allocation is based on the property indicator of the workpiece and is specific for the respective cutting segment. The processor is further configured for providing control instructions for controlling the laser cutting machine by applying the determined dynamic laser beams shapes for each cutting segment specifically.
