Below there are shown two photos and a short description of the instruction use of a
transducer.
The left figure is a bottom view of a typical transducer. The two semicircles are visibly
separated in the middle of the surface. One of the semicircles is conducting the ech-
oed sound back into the transducer. When the transducer is placed against the mate-
rial being measured, this is the area directly beneath the centre of the measured sur-
face.
The below figure is a top view of a typical transducer.
It is pressed against the top with the thumb or the index finger to hold the transducer
in place. Only moderate pressure is sufficient to keep it stationary. Its surface must
be placed flat against the surface of the material.

3.2 Conditions and preparation of surfaces

At any kind of ultrasonic measurement, the shape and roughness of the surface be-
ing tested are of paramount importance. Rough and uneven surfaces may limit the
