I) The first indication, (from your report)

Figure 1

After check in same product with some step at below:

Step 1: Scan and get same signal (see figure 2) we have 2 indication

Indication 2
Indication 1

 Step 2: Draw actual weld configure (perform some step as figure 3,4,5 we have actual weld
configure as figure 6) and collect all parameter:
Sa = 141mm (Figure 2)
x-value ( index point) 10mm
Distance : 91mm (Figure 4)

Step 3: Put Beam profile on actual weld,

Base on beam profile, we determine 2 indication from Figure 2 come from reflection 1 and 2 on figure 8

Conclusion: This indication is not defect, it come from Pad inside (see figure 9) (This pad will attach after
finish NDT on weld. In the first time UT did not get this indication)

Figure 9

Note: Weld cap to big, can not get confident signal from full skip with 45 degree probe as
your scan.

II) The second indication
As figure 10 from your report, after my team check again, we think this is indication not come from LOF
defect because the angle between incident sound beam and bevel nearly 50 degree,

Figure 10

After my team check on same product (figure 11), I think this indication come from weld cap (see round
circle as figure 12 and 13).

III) CONCLUSION:
After check on same product, my team confirm this is not defect,
1) Indication 1 come from weld Pad inside.
2) Indication 2 come from weld cap.

Please check again with actual weld configure and parameter.

In figure 14 from your report, I did not see the defect.

Figure 14

The small indication (About 1.5mm) I think this is the Grinding mark
