Flow Based Fabric Inspection
Minor Faults:
1 defects within 15 CM is considered as a minor faults.
Major Faults:
Within 15 CM More than 1 defects is considered as a Major Defects
Selvedge Defects
Incase of furnishing fabric minor selvedge defects like pulled in selvedge
are considered as major defects
Small defects are nearer to the selvedge means, it will not considered to the
serious problem.

Advantages
End of roll automatic stop sensor - For next roll joining
This will allow for efficient continuous inspection, from roll to roll.
Fabric roll length and weight can be taken using industrial standard measuring systems with
100% fabric inspection with simple push-button accurate fault logging, roll length and weight measurement allowing
for accurate fabric roll analysis and printout.

Knitted Fabric Inspection
List of fabric defects in woven fabrics
Causes : Thread
breaks during process
of winding, warping,
sizing or weaving.
MENDING: Non
Mendable.
Slub Slub : Slub is a bunch of yarn
having less twist or no twist and
has a wider diameter compared to
normal spun yarn.
CAUSES :
Wrong drawing in of
threads.
Incorrect shedding.
MENDING: Non
Mendable.
Broken Ends woven in a bunch
Broken ends woven in a bunch :
This defect is caused by a bunch of
broken ends woven into the fabric.
CAUSES :
Improper sizing (ends
sticking).
Broken end entangling with
the other ends.
CAUSES :
Improper loom cleaning.
Unclean environment.
CAUSES :
Sharp edges on cloth roll.
Hard substance between
layers of fabric in cloth roll.
Course temples used for fine
fabric.
During removal of hard
particles like, Iron particles
woven in the cloth.
CAUSES :
Loom not equipped with warp stop motion.
Dirty drop wires or accumulation of lint may prevent their dropping.
In electric warp stop motion, the electric bars are dirty or corroded.
MENDING: When there are only two adjacent ends missing, the fault
can be rectified by combing in both directions using a metallic comb.
This may fill the bare patch formed due to missing ends.
Missing Picks Missing Picks : A narrow streak
running parallel with weft threads
caused due to absense of weft.
CAUSES :
Faulty let-off and take-up motion.
Faulty weft-stop motion.
Fell of the cloth not adjusted after
loom stoppage for mending.
CAUSES :
Difference in count, twist,
colour, lustre.
Faulty let-off and take-up
motion.
CAUSES :
Improper timing.
Insufficient picking force.
Slack ends in certain
portion. The sagging ends
obstructs shuttle flight.
CAUSES :
Defective setting of the shuttle box.
Early or late picking.
In case of auto loom, weft cutters
worn out or not set properly
CAUSES :
Improper oiling/greasing of looms.
Oil stained Take up roller.
MENDING:
1. Keep the stained portion of the fabric over an absorbent pad.
Apply the stain remover, wetting the stain and surrounding portion
throughly.
2. Rub gently to quicken the penetration of the stain remover.
3. Rubbing should be done towards the centre of stain to avoid
spreading.
4. Note: Delicate fabric needs reduced pressure, otherwise, hole
formation or displacement of the fabric will occur.
Oily Ends
Oily Ends : These are oily warp ends.
CAUSES :
Improper handling and storage of material in spinning department.
Oil-contaminated guides and oily hands during process of warping.
Improper handling of warp beams.
MENDING:
1) Keep the stained portion of the fabric over an absorbent pad. Apply
the stain remover, wetting the stain and surrounding portion
throughly.
2) Rub gently to quicken the penetration of the stain remover.
3) Rubbing should be done towards the centre of stain to avoid
spreading.
Note: Delicate fabric needs reduced pressure, otherwise, hole
formation or displacement of the fabric will occur.
Oily Weft
Oily weft : These are oily weft picks.
CAUSES :
Improper handling and storing in spinning department.
Weft package falling on oily ground.
Handling the weft with oily hands.
Weft carring baskets having oil.
Dropping of oil on weft package during oiling of the winding machine.
MENDING:
1) Keep the stained portion of the fabric over an absorbent pad. Apply the stain
remover, wetting the stain and surrounding portion throughly.
2) Rub gently to quicken the penetration of the stain remover.
3) Rubbing should be done towards the centre of stain to avoid spreading.
Note: Delicate fabric needs reduced pressure, otherwise, hole formation or
displacement of the fabric will occur.
Local Distortion
Local distortion : A Distortion occurs when there is displacement of
warp and/or weft threads from their normal position.
CAUSES :
The emery roll is worn out.
In filament fabric having low reed picks.
Broken pattern
Pile less spot
Uneven or loose piles
Broken Pattern Due To Defective Piles
Broken pattern due to defective piles : A broken pattern is
the result of non-continuity of the design/pattern in the pile
fabric.
CAUSES :
Improper working of terry motion on loom.
Improper functioning of jacquard.
Missing pick.
CAUSES :
Improper working of terry motion on loom.
Improper functioning of jacquard.
CAUSES :
Improper working of terry motion on loom.
Improper functioning of jacquard.
Missing pick.
Bariness
Bunching up
Drop stitch
Holes or Crack
Crack fall out
Horizontal srtipes
Verticle stripes
Bariness
Bariness : A fabric defect characterized by
textural bands or color bands in the course
direction of a weft knitted fabric.
CAUSES :
Use of irregular yarn having higher long term
irregularities.
Using different count thread.
CAUSES :
Fabric take-up too weak.
Thick place in yarn.
CAUSES :
Yarn guide not set poroperly (i.e yarn is not fed properly during loop formation).
Defective latch needle.
yarn tension is not sufficient.
Take-down is too high.
Wrong yarn threading.
MENDING: This fault can be corrected by stitches reforming using a simple needle.
CAUSES :
Relation between cylinder and dial loop not correct.
Weak places in yarn, Which breaks during loop formation
Knots.
Yarn running tension is too high.
CAN BE AVOIDED BY :
Use of flat knots.
Accurate yarn guide setting.
Use of fabric fault detector.
Use of yarn having lower hariness.
Horizontal Stripes
Horizontal stripes : Are caused by uneveness in
the courses. They traverse horizontally and repeat
themselves regularly or irregularly.
CAUSES :
Yarn feeder set badly.
Differences in the yarn running-in tension.
Jerky impulse from fabric take up .
CAUSES :
Bent needles.
Heavily running needles.
Damaged latch needle.
Damaged needle hook.
Damaged dial or cylinder.
CAN BE AVOIDED BY :
Needles and sinkers change after long time use.
Use of fabric fault detector.
Contamination
Holes
Dirt soil
Shade Variation
Miss Print
