An EMAT apparatus which non-destructively tests spot welds between two sheets of metal. The apparatus includes a first EMAT coil on one sheet that acts as a transmitter for generating and transmitting an acoustic wave signal toward the spot weld, and a second EMAT coil on the other sheet for receiving the acoustic wave signal and converting the received acoustic wave signal to an electronic signal having a waveform. Electronics and a PC are used to measure at least one parameter of the waveform which is indicative of a characteristic of the spot weld.
