Abstract

Laser processing apparatus includes movable mirror for changing paths of laser light for processing and measurement light, and stage for changing an incident angle of measuring light. Furthermore, laser processing apparatus includes lens for condensing laser light for processing and measurement light on processing point, controller for controlling laser oscillator, movable mirror, and stage based on corrected data for processing, and measurement processor for measuring a depth of keyhole generated at processing point. The corrected data for processing is data corrected so as to a deviation of an arrival position of at least one of laser light for processing and measurement light caused by chromatic aberration of lens on the surface of workpiece. With this configuration, an accurate depth of keyhole can be measured.
