Instant fabric identification - just present the sample
Our devices are super-easy to use, accessible to your regular staff - no PhD required. They are also incredibly fast, allowing you to identify materials quickly.
Identification in less than a second
No sample preparation needed
Only minimal training required
All key materials are supported.
The devices come with state-of-the-art algorithms built in - no need to purchase them separately or build it yourself. The device identifies the textile blend and determines the % of each component.
Support 9 pure materials (cotton, polyester, polyamide/nylon, elastane, viscose, acrylic, silk, acetate and polypropylene)
Support the 13 most common textile blends
Programmable LED to speed up sorting - program it to show specific colour for specific composition, such as white for polycotton (image right).
