Abstract: A method for monitoring and controlling a laser machining process on a workpiece includes generating a recording of an environment of a process zone generated by a machining laser beam in the workpiece using an image recording device, removing interference factors in the recording using an artificial intelligence method in an image processing device, detecting geometric workpiece properties based on the recording that is free of the interference factors using the artificial intelligence method, generating an input signal for a downstream image processing algorithm from the recording that is free of the interference factors and containing information of the geometric workpiece properties, and determining a correction value for at least one control parameter for a path of the machining laser beam over the workpiece using the image processing algorithm.

Abstract: A laser system includes one or more lasers and one or more laser processing units each connected to a respective one of the one or more lasers by a laser light cable and a data line associated uniquely with the laser light cable. Each laser processing unit includes a safety device for monitoring the laser processing unit and an interface for the data line. The laser system also includes a central safety control operably associated with the one or more laser processing units and configured to monitor the safety devices of multiple laser processing units of the laser system. The interface of each of the one or more laser processing units is connected to the central safety control and via the data line to the respective one of the one or more lasers.

Abstract: A system provides for remote communication between a service computer and a machine control at a machine. The system includes at least one central computer that is protected by a Firewall, a connection between the service computer and the central computer, and communication connections that are allocated to each of the machine controls. The at least one central computer includes a plurality of virtual computers. Each communication connection is associated with a virtual computer. The central computer can be connected to a particular machine control through the virtual computer that is set up for the communication connection allocated to the particular machine control.
