Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2022053271A1] The invention relates to a method for separating a workpiece (1) along a separating line (10) using laser pulses (20) of a laser beam (2). The laser beam (2) is split into multiple sub-laser beams (26) by a beam-splitting optical unit (62), and the sub-laser beams (26) are focused onto the surface (12) and/or into the volume of the workpiece (1) by a focusing optical unit (64) such that the sub-laser beams (26) are arranged one next to another in a mutually spaced manner along the separating line (10), wherein material is removed by introducing the laser pulses (20) of the sub-laser beams (26) into the workpiece along the separating line (10), and the laser power of each sub-laser beam (26) is adapted on the basis of the material removal depth (AT) that is reached in the workpiece (1).
