Abstract
The invention relates to a system which provides a real time update on an estimated positioning of an ultrasonic which is having an ultrasonic generator placed near the inspection probe in the 3D surface, which generates an ultrasonic guided wave travelling along the surface of 3D component and includes positioning more than one ultrasonic receiver probes along the length of 3D component.
Claims9
A positioning system for providing a real time update on the estimated positioning of an ultrasonic probe in a 3D component.
- positioning an ultrasonic generator near an inspection probe in the 3D surface.
- generating an ultrasonic guided wave in the generator in the form of guided wave mode which is generated in an “omni-direction” which guided waves travel along the surface of the 3D component.
- positioning a plurality of ultrasonic receiver probes along the length of the 3D component at specific points based on a selective calculation of optimized apriori.
