100% Real-Time Inspection for Circular Knitting Machines
Cameras & sensors for automated textile inspection.

AI & Computer Vision for
Defect Detection
Artificial Intelligence & Computer Vision to detect all textile defects.

Remote Control & Dashboards
Business Intelligence platform for real-time productivity monitoring & quality control.

Did you know that more than 80% of total textile defects occur during either the knitting or weaving stage?

Also, defective production represents up to 5% of total textile waste, negatively influencing the gross margins of textile factories. 

What if we told you we can solve this?
