Watch KnitI detect
defects in real time

Real KnitI deployment detecting fabric defects at production speed

What KnitI does

Not a fabric scanner.
A knitting factory automation tool.

1

Stop Defective Production

Detects defects and halts the machine in 20ms. No defective fabric produced beyond the detection point.

2

Automate Inspection

Eliminate manual inspection dependency. Reduce labor needs by 40% with centralized monitoring.

3

Enhance Productivity

Run machines at higher RPM without fear. +1 RPM = +12 kg/machine/day.

4

Assure Quality with Traceability

Auto-generated fabric inspection reports. Grade every roll. Full defect history.

5

Enable Factory Digitalization

Real-time dashboards, ERP integration, management reports. Transform your knitting floor.

Defect detection

15+ defect types.
Every fabric. Every machine.

Elastane (Lycra)Cut, Jump, Mix
Yarn FaultsBreaks, Slubs
Needle Line
Holes & Pin Holes
Count Mix
Oil Stripes & Oil Spots
Color Contamination / Fly
Tuck Defects & Wild Yarn
Double Yarn
Visible Barre
Works on Single Jersey, Rib, Interlock, Fleece — Tubular & Open-width. Fine gauge to large diameter.
System architecture

Three components.
One integrated system.

High-Precision Vision System

Custom-built camera detects sub-millimeter defects at 90 RPM. Multi-spectral illumination. Mounted 30cm from needle bed — 7× closer than competitors.

Edge AI Computing

Powerful GPU-driven AI models. 30–40 FPS on-device inference. No cloud, no latency. Auto-adapts to fabric type, colour, pattern — no recalibration.

Machine-Integrated UI

Intuitive touchscreen interface. Real-time defect images with names. Minimal training required. Operators resolve defects promptly.

Universal compatibility

50%

Half the price

$3–8K per machine vs $9–15K from the nearest funded competitor. No VC burn rate inflating your costs.

5.6×

More deployments

450+ systems live in production. The nearest funded competitor has 80+. We have more machines running than all alternatives combined.

Closer detection

Camera mounted 30cm from the needle bed — not 200cm. Sub-millimeter accuracy that catches defects others miss entirely.

7

Countries, 150+ fabrics

Proven across India, Bangladesh, Indonesia, Turkey, Egypt, Vietnam, and Japan. Every fabric type. Every environment.
