Abstract: A process fiber (20) includes a first light transmitter configured to transmit the processing laser beam emitted from a processing laser source (12) of a laser processing system (1); a measuring laser source (14); and a second light transmitter fixed to the first light transmitter along the length of the first light transmitter and configured to transmit the measuring laser beam emitted from the measuring laser source (14). The bending radius of the first light transmitter at a predetermined position is detected based on the measuring laser beam reflected by the second light transmitter.

Abstract: A laser device includes a laser oscillator emitting a laser beam, and an optical unit receiving the laser beam and emitting the laser beam to outside. The optical unit includes: a partially transmissive mirror reflecting a part of the laser beam toward the outside while transmitting a remaining part of the laser beam; a diffusion plate diffusing the laser beam passed through the partially transmissive mirror and deflecting the laser beam in a predetermined direction, at a predetermined diffusion angle; and a photodiode receiving the laser beam deflected by the diffusion plate, and outputting an electric signal. The laser device is configured such that deviation of an optical axis of the laser beam is monitored based on an output signal of the photodiode.

Abstract: Laser processing head (20) of the present disclosure includes housing (30), transparent protector (40), and temperature sensor (70). Housing (30) includes an optical path of processing laser light (LB). Transparent protector (40) is detachably fixed to housing (30), passes processing laser light (LB), and suppresses dust of work material (W) entering into housing (30). Here, the dust is generated from the work material (W) irradiated with processing laser light (LB). Temperature sensor (70) detects the temperature of transparent protector (40).
