Abstract
Apparatus has a receptacle () for two workpiece parts () which extend two-dimensionally in X and Y directions and which are to be joined along a weld. The apparatus includes a laser beam source () comprising a plurality of individually controllable laser beam emitters () which collectively form a line array which is oriented in X direction, a transporting device () for transporting the laser beam source () relative to the receptacle () in Y direction, and a homogenizer () arranged downstream of the laser beam source () in the radiating direction. The homogenizer () has a carrier () in which is provided at least one reflection channel () with a channel cross section (QS) which is adapted to the course of the weld and a channel width (b) which is adapted to the width of the weld.
