Abstract: There is provided a laser machining apparatus, and a laser machining method using the same. The laser machining apparatus has a body portion having a plurality of laser irradiating sections and work mounting sections, a supplying stocker for supplying workpieces, and a discharging stocker for discharging the workpieces. The apparatus further comprises a supply-side transfer unit having work retaining tables capable of attracting/releasing the workpieces and being of the same number as the laser irradiating sections, and moving in vertical and horizontal directions, and a discharge-side transfer unit having work retaining tables capable of attracting/releasing the workpieces and being of the same number as the laser irradiating sections, and moving in vertical and horizontal directions.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a laser beam machining apparatus which enables plural sheets of work to be mounted so as to be simultaneously processed, and which has a small size, even in the case where the number of sheets of work is increased.

Abstract: There is provided a laser machining apparatus, and a laser machining method using the same, which allows an installation area thereof to be reduced while improving working efficiency. The laser machining apparatus has a body portion having a plurality of laser irradiating sections and work mounting sections, a supplying stocker for supplying workpieces, and a discharging stocker for discharging the workpieces. The apparatus further comprises a supply-side transfer unit having work retaining tables capable of attaching/detaching the workpieces and of the same number with the laser irradiating sections, and moving the work retaining tables in the vertical and horizontal directions, and a discharge-side transfer unit having work retaining tables capable attaching/detaching the workpieces and of the same number with the laser irradiating sections, and moving the work retaining tables in the vertical and horizontal directions.
