A Unique Inspection Technique for Finding Patterned Fabric Defects

Testing, Textile

Seeing beyond the patterns with Shelton Vision A ground breaking and unique new fabric inspection technique for accurately detecting the most subtle of defects on patterned fabrics during high speed production has been developed by BTMA member Shelton Vision, of Leicester, UK.

Uster solution gives nonwovens producers total confidence in demanding applications
