Abstract

Ultrasonic linear phased array actuator for electric-acoustic conversion is the key component of the ultrasonic phased array test system. Focusing on the existing deficiency of using phased array ultrasonic testing technology into complex engineering structure, using the 2D orthotropic piezoelectric composite materials (2D-OPCM) into the research of linear phased array actuator can achieve orientable exciting. The single OPCM element and its array actuator was designed and their mechanical properties of focusing were tested by experiment. The experimental results show that 2D-OPCM ultrasound phased array actuator can achieve precise phased array focusing and deflection, which might be of great promising in the nondestructive evaluation engineering application.
