Abstract:
1. A laser machine tool, in particular for carrying out cutting or welding operations, comprising: a supporting structure, beneath which a workpiece is horizontally positionable, and a moving member, carried by said supporting structure and bearing a vertical-axis laser head, designed for directing a laser beam focused on said workpiece, said moving member comprising: said moving member displaceable on said supporting structure along a horizontal cartesian y-axis with movements involving relatively low accelerations; and said supporting structure and said workpiece displaceable with respect to one another along a horizontal cartesian x-axis, orthogonal to said horizontal cartesian y-axis, with movements involving relatively low accelerations, whereby said moving member and said workpiece are positionable with respect to one another in a relatively wide space and in a co-ordinated way with said displacements of said laser head in a relatively restricted space; wherein neither the u-axis nor the v-axis is parallel to the v-axis.
