The microwave horn mouth 53 is a microwave signal generating device, which functions to control the emission direction and power of the microwave source. When the microwave signal passes through a square or circular horn hole, different structures and geometric sizes of the horn mouth will have reflection and interference effects, resulting in different radiation power and signal strength. The microwave generated by the microwave horn mouth 53 travels along the waveguide on the surface of the workpiece 1. If the surface of the workpiece 1 has a structural discontinuity feature, the waveguide will reflect its signal back into the horn mouth, at which time the horn mouth functions as a receiver, thereby realizing the detection of the complete structure and defects of the workpiece.
