Abstract
A control unit for providing control instructions for controlling a laser cutting machine by determining transition phases for transforming different dynamic laser beam shapes for the laser cutting machine, for dynamically varying the shape of the laser beam is disclosed. The control unit includes a cutting plan interface for receiving a cutting plan for cutting out parts of a workpiece that are each defined by a cutting segments ordered in a queue, an allocation tool configured to allocate a specific dynamic laser beam shape to each cutting segment, a transition tool for determining transition phases between each two consecutive specific dynamic laser beam shape, and a processor configured for determining a specific dynamic laser beam shape for each cutting segment and for determining all transition phases between each two consecutive specific dynamic laser beam shapes and for providing controlling the laser cutting machine for executing the received cutting plan.
