Abstract
A processing head of a laser cladding apparatus, configured to form a cladding layer on a substrate, includes: a laser irradiation part that introduces incident laser light and irradiates the substrate with the laser light; a jet nozzle, into which an assist gas is introduced and which forms a jet of the assist gas around the laser light; and a powder storage part that stores a cladding material powder to be fed to the substrate. The powder storage part has a powder feeding port that is opened facing a jet formation region of the assist gas.
