Abstract:
A support system for a laser beam machine, comprising:an inferred value producing unit that produces an inferred value for each of a plurality of processing condition parameters indicative of conditions under which laser processing is performed, by use of an artificial intelligence function; a display unit that displays the inferred value produced by said inferred value producing unit; and an input unit that allows an operator to enter a plurality of evaluation parameters that represent results of evaluation on a current processing state; wherein said inferred value producing unit comprises a processing condition parameter selecting portion that selects a processing condition parameter that has a greatest modification effect value Peff, the modification effect value Peff for each processing condition parameter being a function of a value that represents a general relationship between the processing condition and each undesirable phenomena, and an evaluation parameter regarding the undesirable phenomena.
