A method for processing elements into final elements

A method for cutting and at least one of shaping, welding and bending a metal element into a final element, the method comprising:

• providing a metal element to be processed into a final element by cutting and at least one of shaping, welding and bending the metal element,
• providing a laser configured to cut and at least one of shape, weld and bend the metal element, the laser comprising at least a first laser source,
• providing a measuring device configured to measure a position of one or more sections of the metal element being cut and at least one of shaped, welded and bent by the laser,
• providing a control configured to controlling the laser, wherein the controller is enabled to control at least a vector and velocity of the vector, an amount of energy and beam focus of the laser,
• providing data, the data comprising at least one of a final model of the final element and initial instructions as to how the metal element is to be processed into the final element by cutting and at least one of shaping, welding and bending the metal element with the laser,
• providing an input/output device configured to receive and send at least the data,
• providing a data processor configured to process the data from the input/output device to provide a first set of instructions to the controller, the instructions comprising at least a sequence of cutting and at least one of shaping, welding and bending and further providing calculations for the vector and velocity of the vector, the amount of energy and beam focus to perform a cutting process and at least one of a shaping, welding and bending process, by the laser, to one or more sections of the metal element being at least one of cut, shaped, welded and bent, and
• in which the data processor provide at least a secondary set of instructions to the controller, wherein the at least secondary set of instructions are calculated by the data processor based on measurements provided by the measuring device, and in which the laser cuts and at least one of shapes, welds and bends the metal element into the final element.
