The PillGrade system is a 3D fabric scanning system that uses patent pending technology to objectively and repeatedly grade fabric swatches for surface properties. The system outputs pilling and fuzziness data, in addition to the 1.0-5.0 pilling grade according to both ASTM and ISO standards. PillGrade's unique approach to vision inspection enables the system to scan and grade fabrics of any weight, color and pattern.
Advantages:
- Ensures objective, repeatable grades
- Ensures agreement throughout textile supply chain
- Easy and fast (~5 seconds) to operate
- Correlates to ASTM & ISO grade scale
- Compiles production/supplier pill data
- Measures and grades fuzziness
- PillGrade also grades snags
Fabric Types & Sizes:
- Any woven, nonwoven, knit, fleece, automotive, any blend or material.
- Fabric patterns and colors are ""invisible"" to PillGrade. Specimen size range is 4" x 4" (10cm x 10cm) to 6" x 6" (150mm x 150mm)
