Abstract: An ultrasonic non-destructive testing apparatus of the electronic scanning type comprising transmitter for producing exciting pulses in response to a predetermined timing pulse, a probe coupled to said transmitter, having a plurality of transducers for transmitting ultrasonic waves into a body to be tested and for receiving ultrasonic echo waves, signal processor coupled to said probe for processing said ultrasonic echo waves received by said probe to generate an echo wave signal, a memory coupled to said signal processor for storing reference data on an amplitude attenuation of an ultrasonic echo coming through each beam propagating path which is obtained by transmitting the ultrasonic waves into a calibration body at the time of a calibration, calculator coupled to said memory for calculating a predetermined correction value on the basis of said reference data stored in said memory, said predetermined correction value being at each crossing points on a two dimensional coordinate by applying a linear interpo

Abstract: A phased array ultrasonic testing apparatus includes: an array probe for ultrasonic transmission and reception; a transmitter for sequentially exciting transducers of the probe in a predetermined order; a circuit for preparing a composite signal from reception output from the probe; and a circuit for preparing an image signal indicating an internal flaw of a tested body in synchronism with the composite signal in accordance with a transmission beam index point and a steered angle of an ultrasonic main beam.
