Abstract

PURPOSE:To provide the manufacturing equipment of a photovoltaic apparatus, in which energy beam processing can be performed under always optimum processing conditions irrespective of the degree of variation of the film constitution of a workpiece. CONSTITUTION:In a process where laser beam L from a laser oscillator 1 is applied to the work region of a workpiece W via optical system 2 for the purpose of removing the work region, a time-measuring means 3 normally measures a time required from the start of application of laser beam L to the work piece W till the completion of removal of the work region. A condition control means 4 compares the measurement results of the time-measuring means 3 with the optimum value required for the removal of the work region set beforehand, while successively changing the application conditions of laser beam L so that the conditions coincide with the optimum value. Thus, the removal of the work region under the optimum application conditions is realized all over the surface of the workpiece W.
