<p>A welding device applies weld material between two work pieces (P1, P2) so as to connect the work pieces (P1, P2) mechanically with one another. The welding device has a welding head (110) and a probe head (120). The welding head (110) performs a welding action in respect of the work pieces (P1, P2) during transport of the welding device along an operating direction (OD) in a welding plane (WP); and the probe head (120), which is arranged upstream of the welding head (110) relative to the operating direction (OD), measures a set of geometric properties of a gap (G) between the work pieces (P1, P2). Thus, the welding head (110) can be properly positioned to attain a desired application of the weld material in the gap (G). Moreover, first adjustment means allow a position of the probe head (120) relative to a position of the welding head (110) to be varied angularly by rotating at least one of the probe head (120) and the welding head (110) around a first axis (A1 ) oriented essentially perpendicular to the welding plane (WP). Thereby, welding in narrow and curved gaps (G) is facilitated.</p> |
