Abstract
An insulation part for supporting an electrically conductive nozzle in an insulated manner, and a laser machining head with a housing (), through which a working laser beam path () is guided. The working laser beam path () exits on the machining side through an electrically conductive nozzle (). The electrically conductive nozzle () is supported on an insulation part (), which is supported on the housing (), and which, for the capacitive distance measurement, is electrically connected to an oscillating circuit () of a distance measuring circuit (). To monitor the presence of an inexpensive insulation part () in a user-friendly manner, the insulation part () comprises a ferromagnetic body () and a sensor () for detecting the ferromagnetic body () is provided on the housing (). The sensor is connected to a monitoring circuit () that, in the absence of an insulation part (), outputs a warning signal.
