Then, the rotation indexing from the first surface of the processing member 33 to the second surface is started by the signal of the laser marking completion of the first surface of the processing member 33. First, the motor 56 starts to rotate by the rotation index angle. The rotary shaft (B) 46 rotates through the timing pulley (B) 55, the timing belt 54, and the timing pulley (A) 50. The rotary shaft (A) 35 rotates via the cam follower 44 and the cam follower mounting plate 43 fitted in the groove of the rotary shaft (B) 46, and the member holding portion 26 and the processing member 33 mounted thereon also rotate. It is confirmed by the detection plate 51 and the sensor 52 attached to the end of the rotary shaft (B) 46 whether the motor 56 has rotated by the rotation indexing angle, and the rotation indexing of the processing member 33 is completed.

By the above operation, all the machining surfaces are indexed, rotated and laser-marked over a plurality of machining members 33 in order, and the plurality of machining members 33 are rotated again.
Then, the laser marking is performed on the entire surfaces of the plurality of processing members 33, and the laser marking is completed. Then, the turntable 25 is rotated by the index unit 59 and the flange shaft 58, and a plurality of new processing members 33 are moved to the laser marking portion 29.

The above is an example in the case of laser marking on the polyhedral processing member 33, but in the case of a cylindrical or cylindrical processing member, the above method is also used, and the processing member is processed by the member indexing portion 30. It is also possible to perform laser marking while continuously rotating.

As described above, according to the present invention, it is possible to reduce the equipment cost by realizing a simple transfer system and laser marking a plurality of processed members with one laser beam. Further, by providing the positioning portion and the marking confirmation portion on the turntable, the quality of laser marking can be secured and guaranteed. Further, by continuously performing laser marking on a plurality of processed members and rotational indexing of the processed surface, the laser marking stop time can be greatly reduced and the productivity is improved. Further, it is possible to perform laser marking on a plurality of points of a polyhedral, cylindrical or cylindrical processed member.
