ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for ultrasonic nondestructive testing of workpieces include automatic compensation of echo responsive electrical signals commensurate with preprogrammed test parameters. The test parameters include at least one of the following: depth dependent correction of the individual DGS (distance, gain, size) values for each respective probe; correction for material related properties of the workpiece and coupling medium; correction for temperature affecting the testing of the workpiece. Preferably, a compensating signal generated commensurate with the sum of the correction signals is used for varying either the gain of a receiver amplifier or a predetermined level provided to a comparator circuit or both. Embodiments disclosed are applicable for processing both analog and digital echo responsive electrical signals.
