ABSTRACT:
A system for electronically inspecting fabric for defects wherein a moving fabric is scanned by light sensing apparatus for variations in light reflecting characteristics due to the presence of a defect. The sensitivity of the system is monitored by an automatic background control circuit to adapt the system to the light reflective characteristics of the particular fabric being inspected and alarm and defect counting apparatus indicates and records the presence of a defect. The system permits the inspection to be terminated upon the detection of a defect, or alternatively, the quality of the fabric can be determined by recording spaced defects during successive defect recordable time periods, the duration of such time periods being adjustable.
