The y direction refers to the front-to-rear direction.

[0022] The support assembly 15 is arranged at least partially on the bottom plate 12 and includes upright columns 151 arranged on the left and right sides of the end plate 13, and a support table 152 and a cross beam 153 arranged on the upright columns 151.

The cross beam 153 is provided with a conveying assembly 16 extending along the left-to-right direction.

[0023] The laser processing assembly 17 includes a first light source 171, a second light source 172, a first reflector 173, a beam expander 174, a second reflector 175, a displacement member 176, a third reflector 177, and a cutting head 178. Specifically, the first light source 171 is arranged on the support table 152 and is used to provide a first laser beam. The first reflector 173 is arranged on the right side of the first light source 171 and has the beam expander 174 and the through hole 1531 arranged in sequence on the front side. The beam expander 174 is used to improve the collimation of the first laser beam, adjust the diameter of the first laser beam, and improve the quality of laser scribing. The second reflector 175 is arranged at least partially on the front side of the through hole 1531 and is connected to the cross beam 153. The displacement member 176 is arranged at least partially on the conveying assembly 16 and is movable along the left-to-right direction on the conveying assembly 16, so as to achieve cutting processing of the thin-film photovoltaic material by the laser processing assembly 17 along the x direction. The x direction refers to the left-to-right direction. The third reflector 177 is arranged at least partially on the displacement member 176 and is arranged on the left side of the second reflector 175.
