More Information
Summary:The invention relates to an apparatus 100 for 3D shaping of a workpiece 101 by material ablation with a laser beam 102. The apparatus 100 comprises a machining unit 103, which is configured to provide a pressurized fluid jet 104 onto the workpiece 101 and to couple the laser beam 102 into the fluid jet 104 towards the workpiece 101. Further, the apparatus 100 includes a motion controller 105 configured to set an x-y-z-position of the workpiece 101 relative to the machining unit 103. It also includes a measuring unit 107 configured to measure a z-position of the point of incidence 108 of the pressurized fluid jet 104 on the workpiece 101 in the z-direction.
