Shelton Vision’s systems employ advanced imaging technology, including high-resolution cameras and specialised software algorithms, to detect flaws or inconsistencies in the fabric pattern repeat. The system can quickly and accurately identify defects such as misprints, colour variations, streaks, or other imperfections that may affect the quality of the fabric.
By automating the patterned fabric inspection process, Shelton Vision’s technology allows textile manufacturers, printers and finishers to improve quality control, reduce waste and increase productivity. It allows for rapid and precise inspection of large volumes of fabric, ensuring that only flawless materials are used in production.
Shelton Vision’s fabric inspection systems assess defects based on the type of fabric and according to specific customer standards. We use mathematical measures like size and contrast to determine the seriousness of each defect. This means we can categorise defects based on their impact, helping manufacturers prioritise and address issues accordingly.
