For the purpose of better understanding the interaction of Rayleigh wave and the fatigue crack in a metallic sample, a set of experimental setups is built, based on the scanning laser source (SLS) technique, utilizing a point source to take place of the line source to generate surface acoustic waves (SAWs), and an interferometer is to detect the SAWs signal. The information of the crack (such as position and length) can be obtained by utilizing a two-dimensional scan of the material surface. This paper focuses on the detection of visible and invisible fatigue crack by using this point-source-based scanning laser source technique, and comparing the results with those of conventional pitch-catch technique. The result shows that with two-dimensional scanning, and analyzing the amplitude of the generated SAWs, not only the visible fatigue can be identified, but also the invisible fatigue crack can be discriminated. As a result, the sensitivity of the scanning point laser source technique is higher than the conventional pitch-catch technique.
