Abstract
An ultrasonic inspection device allows position adjustment of three-dimensional inspection data and shape data to be easily performed on a display screen and allows a defect echo and a shape echo to be quickly identified. A calculator generates the three-dimensional inspection data from waveforms stored in a data storage unit. A three-dimensional display unit displays the three-dimensional inspection data generated by the calculator and the three-dimensional shape data on an object to be inspected. The calculator corrects the relative displayed positions of the three-dimensional inspection data and the three-dimensional shape data on the basis of a coordinate system defined by points and a surface that constitute a part of the three-dimensional shape data displayed by the three-dimensional display unit, and causes the three-dimensional display unit to display the three-dimensional inspection data and the three-dimensional shape data while the three-dimensional inspection data and the three-dimensional shape data overlap each other.
