Abstract: A method for manufacturing a resin mold includes the steps of: attaching a transmitting resin member capable of transmitting a laser beam and an absorbing resin member capable of absorbing the laser beam; and irradiating the laser beam on an interface between the transmitting resin member and the absorbing resin member from a surface of the transmitting resin member so that a welding spot is formed on the interface and the transmitting resin member and the absorbing resin member are welded. The laser beam is irradiated homogeneously on the interface by a homogenizer so that a center portion of the welding spot and an outer portion of the welding spot are heated homogeneously by the laser beam.

Abstract: In a laser beam machining method in which laser beams L are irradiated with a movement of the robot 3 and the three-dimensional workpiece 10 is machined, a locus speed of the robot 3 at a position where the workpiece 10 is machined is measured previously or in real time, and an intensity of the laser beams is controlled according to this locus speed. In the case of a workpiece made of resin, in addition to the locus speed, a change in the transmission of the workpiece with respect to the laser beams is fed back to an output of the laser beams.

Abstract: A method for manufacturing a resin mold includes the steps of: laminating a second resin member, a filling member and a first resin member in this order; and irradiating with the laser beam from a first resin member side so that the first resin member and the second resin member are welded. The first resin member is capable of transmitting a laser beam. The laser beam works as a heat source. The second resin member is capable of absorbing the laser beam. The filling member fills a clearance between the first and second resin members when the first and second resin members are attached. Thus, the method provides the resin mold without a defect such as a void.
