What is Fabric Inspection Machine

 

Fabric inspection machines are used to inspect fabric materials in order to find manufacturing defects(weave), mechanical defects (holes) and dirty spots. For convenience of operator inspection machines have an illuminated panel, under the material.

 

Benefits of Fabric Inspection Machine

 

 

Fabric inspection machines automate quality control
Fabric inspection machines ease the inspection process by detecting flaws unnoticeable to the human eye. They check for width and length accuracy, as well as weaving and knitting errors, removing the risk of defective products ending up in the wrong hands. Fabric inspection machines reduce the reliance on manual inspections, leading to a more accurate quality control process.

 

Higher inspection accuracy, better return on investment
Fabric inspection machines use advanced technology to identify product defects easily overlooked by workers. Although there is an initial expenditure involved in purchasing new machinery, identifying defective fabric before it is shipped to customers means that the return on investment is high. Factories can focus on producing high-quality goods, knowing that defects will be quickly detected by fabric inspection machines.

 

Reduced production delays and fabric waste
Fabric defects have a detrimental impact on the production process, as rejects must be sent back to the workshop to be rectified or thrown away. At best, this delays production but at worst, it causes large amounts of fabric wastage. Using a fabric inspection machine throughout the production process leads to higher quality control accuracy, reducing production delays and fabric wastage.

 

Decreased manpower and higher productivity
Factory automation with fabric inspection machines reduces the need for high numbers of manual quality inspectors. Fabric inspection machines catch defects that are overlooked by workers, enhancing quality control results. Surplus staff can be sent to work in other departments, boosting factory efficiency, and increasing productivity.

 

Satisfied customers, improved reputation
Fabric inspection is important to ensure that the best quality fabric is sent to customers. Accidentally sending out defective products costs more than just money— it can cause customers to find a more reliable supplier elsewhere. Timely identification of product defects allows factories to produce higher quality fabric, enhancing customer satisfaction. Consistently supplying excellent quality goods help to build a robust reputation, leading to repeat orders from happy customers.

Troubleshooting of Fabric Inspection Machine

 

 

The fabric is inclined and stuck when advancing on the fabric inspection machine
This is mainly caused by the non-parallel fabric guide rollers. The operator can solve the problem by adjusting the parallelism of the guide rollers.

 

Untidy fabric roll
It is caused by the non-parallel between the fabric roller and guide roller, so adjusting the parallelism of the fabric roller and the guide roller can completely eliminate the problem.

 

The guiding and rolling process of the fabric are not smooth
The reason for this situation may be that the rotating parts of the machine have dust, fabric crumbs and oil stains, or that the rotating parts are not installed properly. So as long as we install the rotating parts correctly and regularly clean the oil and dust in the machine, this problem could be avoided.

 

Loud machine noise
The problem is mostly due to poor machine lubrication, worn parts or loose screws. To solve the problem, the operator should lubricate the equipment, properly install various parts, or replace the damaged or substandard parts.

 

Partial stagnation of the guide roller or fabric winding roller
This phenomenon is mainly caused by the bad match between the replaced bearing and the original parts, resulting in the damage and bending of the guide roller and the cloth winding roller. It can be solved by adjusting the equipment parts which do not fit well, and then correcting the bending deflection of the shaft.

 

Insufficient illumination of the glass plate of the inspection machine
The insufficient illumination is mainly caused by the dust and fabric debris on the fluorescent tube and the glass plate, or the unstable lamp voltage. This problem can be easily solved as long as the dust and fabric debris are regularly removed, and keep the lighting voltage stabilized.

 

Inaccurate measurement of the duplicating device
During the conveying process of the fabric, insufficient friction, long-term wear and tear of the length-measuring wheel or obstruction of operation may cause the problem of inaccurate length measurement of the fabric inspection machine. It can be solved by raising temperature of the fabric to increase the friction of the conveying movement, replacing the length-measuring wheel, and frequently cleaning the dust and oil on the length-measuring wheel.

 

Others
No lubricating oil for a long time will cause other failures during the operation of the equipment. These failures can be avoided by regularly adding lubricating oil to the equipment.

 

Purpose of Cloth Inspection Machine

 

The cloth inspection machine is used to check the quality and defects of the cloth. In the production process of textile cloth, some defects may occur, such as holes, uneven color of defects, etc. The cloth inspection machine can carefully inspect the cloth through a combination of light source and magnifying glass. Find and mark these defects. This inspection method is more accurate and efficient than manual inspection. Through the inspection of the cloth inspection machine, defective cloth can be removed in time to ensure the consistency of product quality.

 

The cloth inspection machine is used to check the specifications and yarn density of the cloth. In the process of cloth production, different styles and types of cloth need to meet certain specifications and requirements. Through the measuring instruments of the cloth inspection machine, the width, length, density and yarn density of the cloth can be easily measured to ensure that the cloth meets the production standards and customer needs. This precise measurement function is very important for cloth production companies, which can reduce errors and improve production efficiency.

 

The cloth inspection machine is also used to test the mechanical properties of the cloth. The cloth needs to have a certain mechanical strength and wear resistance when in use to ensure its service life and performance in various environments. The cloth inspection machine can evaluate the mechanical properties of the cloth through functions such as tensile testing and wear testing. This helps textile manufacturers understand and control the quality of the cloth and provides a scientific basis, such as appropriately adding materials or improving production processes to improve the mechanical properties of the cloth.

 

The cloth inspection machine is also used to screen and grade cloth. Some textile production processes require the use of high-quality cloth that meets certain specifications. The cloth inspection machine can screen out the cloth that meets the specifications and provide it for subsequent process links through testing and screening of the cloth. This helps to improve production efficiency, reduce labor costs, and ensure the quality of the produced textiles.

 

The cloth inspection machine can also be used for research and development and technological improvement. In the textile industry, continuous technological progress and innovation are crucial to the competitiveness of enterprises. The cloth inspection machine can help enterprises understand the performance and characteristics of different materials by testing and studying various cloth materials and new materials, and provide a scientific basis for the research and development of new products. At the same time, the cloth inspection machine also provides the possibility of improving and optimizing the production process to improve production efficiency and product quality.

 

 

How Does A Fabric Inspection Machine Work

The fabric inspection machine is a device used for fabric inspection, generally composed of a frame, a fabric guide roller, a platform, an inspection table and other components. As shown in the figure, the grey fabric is drawn out from the fabric doffing car, passes through the guide rollers 1, 2 and 3 in succession. Then the fabric goes to the fabric inspection table 6. After being inspected automatically, the fabric then passes through the pulling roller 4 and the guide roller 5, and finally enters the swinging bucket 10. The swinging bucket reciprocates to make the fabric evenly folded. The movement of the fabric mainly depends on the pulling roller 4, and there is a pressing roller 16 above the pulling roller to increase the holding force of the fabric. In order to reverse a piece of fabric that has been already inspected once, the fabric inspection machine uses a set of clutch 7 to control the forward, reverse and stop rotation of the pulling roller 4, so as to achieve the purpose of advancing, retreating and stopping the fabric. The fabric inspection table is white frosted glass, equipped with upper and lower lights, suitable for inspection of various fabrics no matter it is natural or yarn-dyed, high-density or sparse, thick or thin.

Some fabric inspection machines also have the function of rolling fabric. They are used to inspect, reweave, and measure the fabric directly on the inspection table, and then directly pack the fabric into a roll for storage or send it to a printing and dyeing factory for processing. The machine is driven by a thyristor DC motor, and the inspection speed is steplessly regulated. The tension automatic control device is used to make the tension of fabric roller uniform. The fabric inspection machine achieves the uniformity of both sides of the winding edge through the automatic edge-aligning device with infrared photoelectric tracking, and ensures the accurate length by an automatic length-measuring device.
