Image processing as a tool to improve machine performance and process control

Abstract

Image processing has been used as a tool to determine the trash content in cotton webs. The experiments showed that in particular seed coat particles are difficult to separate from the cotton during cleaning processes whereas neps, leaf and wooden fragments can easily be removed. A correlation between the number of seed coat particles and USTER‐imperfections in the yarn has been found.
