Abstract

A system and method for automating programming of an industrial use x-ray inspection machine, utilizing an artificial intelligence (AI) engine in both a navigator level and planner level stage of an x-ray parts inspection machine, the AI engine performing at least one of identifying and classifying a sample, assessing location(s) to be inspected on the sample, and implementing a test criteria for each assessed location on the sample. The AI engine removes the typical interactions and setup procedures performed by the machine operator, thus enabling a higher degree of system automation and accuracy.
