Abstract

This paper intends to explore part of the development of a simple and compact system that operates an algorithm based on image processing techniques, concerning the characterization of textile yarn. Specifically, it aims to conclude about parameters such as the diameter, the linear mass, the volume, the imperfections, the twist’s pitch and direction, and the pilosity coefficient. These are considered essential regarding the yarn parametrization for quality control. The main goal of this project was to develop a practical solution based on image processing that arises as innovative in comparison to the existing equipment in the industry.
