Abstract
An ultrasonic transducer probe for testing workpieces exhibiting compound surfaces includes a molded plastic body which precisely fits to the shape of such workpiece surfaces. Moreover, the body includes, as an integral part thereof, an indexing portion for accurately locating the transducer probe in relation to a predetermined workpiece test area to cause the transducer element embedded in the molded body to transmit ultrasonic energy in the predetermined test area. The transducer probe is secured to a manipulator for remote operation.
