Determination of structural parameters of single-colored woven fabrics by using image processing method

Determination of fabric structure parameters is the first process in all textile factories, especially weaving mills. The analysis of woven fabrics is one of the most important, indispensable, and time-consuming processes that require care and precision. For this reason, any errors made in the analysis of fabric may cause the losses which may be extremely difficult to compensate for the factory. Almost all mistakes in the processes of the fabric analysis are human-induced. And also, minimizing human-induced errors is very important for enterprises to decrease their time and financial loss. In this study, thanks to image processing method, it has been aimed to determine the fabric structures, warp and weft densities from structural parameters of single-color woven fabrics. In order to determine these parameters, algorithms have been developed, and applied to the different woven fabrics
