Angle Beam Transducers and wedges are typically used to introduce a<br />

refracted shear wave into the test material. The geometry of the sample<br />

below allows the sound beam to be reflected from the back wall to improve<br />

detectability of flaws in and around welded areas.<br />

Ɵ = Angle of reflection, T=Material thickness, S= Sound path,<br />

Skip = 2(T x TanƟ), Leg = T/CosƟ, V Path = 2 x Leg
