The measurement, today

Rolls are graded by eye on a lit table at speed. Small defects are missed, severity calls drift between inspectors and shifts, and the roll grade is only as reproducible as the person assigning it.

What it costs

Points per 100 square yards decide whether a roll ships, is downgraded to seconds, or is rejected outright. A missed defect reaches the cutting table, where its cost is multiplied by every panel cut from the roll.

From image to reviewed result

  1. 1

    Scan the roll

    Feed line-scan frames or inspection-table images across the full fabric width.

  2. 2

    Detect and classify

    Multi-class detection separates holes, slubs, broken ends and picks, floats, and stains from weave texture.

  3. 3

    Score by size

    Each defect earns 1 to 4 penalty points from its measured length. No single defect exceeds 4 points, and no linear unit exceeds 4 points regardless of how many defects it holds.

  4. 4

    Total and dispose

    Points are normalised per 100 square yards and checked against the acceptance threshold you agreed with the buyer.

Scope: Assigns demerit points from detected defect size, following the four-point convention. Acceptance thresholds are set between you and your buyer, and final roll disposition stays with the inspector.
