Investigating the positioning edge accuracy of sensors in textile and clothing manufacture

Purpose This paper seeks to pursue the research of different types of sensors suitable for positioning edge accuracy of textile material. Design/methodology/approach A measuring device is used to install different types of sensors on the slide holders and to change their interspace as well as the space between the sensors and textile fabric. Findings The new measuring equipment has been established. Research limitations/implications Only the results of woven fabric measurement are analyzed in this paper, while the results of knitted and nonwoven fabric measurement will be elaborated in the future papers. Originality/value The measuring equipment is original.
