Abstract
According to one implementation, a method of producing an ultrasonic inspection system includes creating design information on the ultrasonic inspection system and assembling the ultrasonic inspection system based on the design information. The design information includes numbers, positions and directions of at least one ultrasonic sensor and at least one ultrasonic transducer. The design information is created by an optimization calculation of which at least one parameter includes at least one of the numbers, positions and directions of the at least one ultrasonic sensor and the at least one ultrasonic transducer. The optimization calculation includes a simulation of an ultrasonic inspection for detecting a defect by the ultrasonic inspection system having the at least one ultrasonic sensor and the at least one ultrasonic transducer. The simulation is performed using a model simulating an object of the ultrasonic inspection.
