Probe with a combination of a flexible ultrasonic transducer and of a flexible eddy current sensor

摘要

The present invention discloses a probe and method for inspecting a complex shaped object having an irregular surface. In this invention, a flexible film of piezoelectric elements is combined with a flexible film of eddy current elements into a single probe. The probe simultaneously inspects the volume and the surface of the object by using the flexible ultrasonic transducer and the flexible eddy current sensor, respectively.
