To improve inspection accuracy of an arc-welding tip exhaustion state.SOLUTION: An exhaustion state inspection device 1 for an arc-welding tip 100 includes a retainer 10 which retains the arc-welding tip 100, and laser equipment 21 which irradiates the arc-welding tip 100, which is retained by the retainer 10, with slit light. The exhaustion state inspection device comprises: measuring means (sensor unit 20 and control unit 50) for measuring a cross-sectional contour line image of the arc-welding tip 100 when the arc-welding tip 100 is cut by a light cutting surface formed by slit light; and a determination part 51 for determining an exhaustion state of the arc-welding tip 100 on the basis of plural cross-sectional contour line images measured by the measuring means.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1 【課題】アーク溶接チップの消耗状態の検査精度を向上させる。【解決手段】アーク溶接チップ１００の消耗状態検査装置１は、アーク溶接チップ１００を保持する保持装置１０と、保持装置１０に保持されたアーク溶接チップ１００にスリット光を照射するレーザ装置２１を含み、スリット光で形成される光切断面でアーク溶接チップ１００を切断したときの、該アーク溶接チップ１００の断面輪郭線像を計測するための計測手段（センサユニット２０及びコントロールユニット５０）と、計測手段により計測された複数の断面輪郭線像に基づいて、アーク溶接チップ１００の消耗状態を判定するための判定部５１とを備える。【選択図】図１
