Abstract. A method is proposed for expanding the technological capabilities of numerically controlled machine by integrating a fiber laser system into the tool composition. To lighten the parts of the laser head body while maintaining their rigidity parameters, the body is modified, some structural elements are combined, and all the body walls are made lighter and more functional. Due to the proposed design, the laser head is easy to use while maintaining the construction rigidity. The new body of the laser head expands the list of works for numerically controlled machines, which makes it possible to reduce the production time not only of a single part, but also for the final product. This approach reduces the cost of maintaining and servicing equipment by integrating it into numerically controlled machines. Marking and manufacturing of parts on one machine allows not only to automate the processes of further assembly of the final product using QR codes, but also to increase the accuracy of marking and engraving on the product due to a one-stage process.
