With the development of aerospace technology, electron beam welding technology has become an important part of the welding field. More and more aircraft and spacecraft parts adopt electron beam welding technology. However, in the process of electron beam welding, due to the influence of the incident angle of the electron beam, the deviation of the weld bead and the electromagnetic field, it is easy to produce defects such as unfused and blowholes. Therefore, it is necessary to conduct a non-destructive testing study on the electron beam weld. Aiming at the characteristics and defects of electron beam welds, the TOFD inspection method of electron beam welds was developed, the basic principles of TOFD inspection were introduced in detail, the TOFD acoustic beam coverage was calculated, and the TOFD inspection of electron beam welds was carried out based on self-developed systems Experiment and analyze the experimental results. Experiments show that the ultrasonic TOFD detection method can quickly and accurately detect electron beam welds, which is an effective method for electron beam weld detection.
