Abstract
The invention relates to a method for laser-beam cutting a metal workpiece having a thickness of less than 5 mm, in which a double focusing lens is employed making it possible to focus the laser beam at least at a first focusing point (PF1) and a second focusing point (PF2) which are separate from each other and lie on the beam axis, characterized in that the lens has a focal length (FL) of between 80 and 135 mm.
