Abstract

The welding cane is equipped with a welding head (1) comprising an optical fiber (5) which emits a laser beam focused by an optical device (9) onto a wall (10) to be welded where a weld puddle (12) is formed. The welding head (1) comprises a photoelectric cell (45) illuminated by the scattered light around the end of the optical fiber. The signal emitted by the photoelectric cell (45) depends on the integrity of the optical fiber (5) and on the energy utilized for welding. It is used in the welding of a sealing sleeve in a pressurized water nuclear reactor steam generator tube.
