ABSTRACT:
Method and apparatus to measure the angle of pile lay to generate a signal which can be employed to automatically adjust another phase of the manufacturing operation to provide a desired pile effect on the fabric. Basically, the invention involves placing a light source on one side of the pile fabric and a light sensor on the other side of the fabric and varying the relative positions of the source and sensor to the pile on the fabric to obtain a measurement of optimum light transmittance.
