fabric defects classificaion

well finding a fabric without defects is really difficult. it's like you are going to find a perfect man or woman to marry... however these defects can make a fabric lower in quality and ultimately it will be another wasted product.

fabric defects can be categorized mainly as below


this classification can be used to decide the severity of the defects but there can be other classifications too.

for an example I made below classification considering how the defect occur



there are  more to say about defetcs.... wait for the next pages !!!!

  1. Visual fabric inspection

    Visual inspection can be done manual and automated depends on the machinery type.

    Fabric Inspection Machine

    These machines are designed as the fabric rolls are mounted behind the inspection table under sufficient light and rerolled as they leave the table. Defects in the fabric can be found easily with these machines, as the inspector has a clear view of the fabric. The inspection machines are either power driven or the inspector pulls the fabric over the inspection table. The defects are located, marked and recorded in the inspection form. Such machines are also equipped to accurately measure the length and the width of each roll of the fabric.

  3. As i know there are some objectives in fabric inspection. below what i know

    they are early detection of defects,
    feedback of this information to the appropriate people,
    and determination of the cause,
    ultimately resulting in the correction of the problem..

    besides, there are several grading systems in the world but i don't which are used in Sri Lankan industry


    4 points system
    6 points system
    9 points system
    10 point system
    Graniteville system

    1. well if we take first classification, yes you can classified all the defects like that, but when it comes to the second classification, it speaks only about fabric defects. Defects can be divided into two as fabric defects and garment defects..

      i'll post some links here later for you to get more information
