Abstract
A laser beam welding apparatus includes a component holding unit which holds components that are to be welded. A laser irradiation unit performs welding of the components by irradiating a welding laser beam to a welding zone of the components. A stress detection unit detects stress data that indicate a stress condition of the components held by the component holding unit. A stress correction unit controls irradiation of a correcting laser beam to the welding zone, based on a result of comparison between reference stress data, detected when positions of the components are aligned in proper position before the welding, and post-welding stress data, detected after the welding is performed by the laser irradiation unit, so that the post-welding stress data, obtained after the irradiation of the correcting laser beam, matches with the reference stress data.
