Smartex Showing Innovative Fabric-Roll Level Traceability Tool AT ITMA
Smartex is introducing Smartex Loop, an innovative fabric-roll level traceability tool, alongside several other upgrades at ITMA in Hall 4, Stall E103
Building upon the success of Smartex Core, its AI-enabled automated quality control product, Smartex Loop enables suppliers to take advantage of fabric-roll level data collection and revolutionise supply chain communication.
“It also directly addresses the call from fashion brands for better supply chain data, marking a new era of transparency and collaboration,” the company said.
With Smartex Loop, users can quickly scan any fabric roll’s Loop Passport or review all of their rolls on the Smartex Platform via their desktop or mobile and instantly access a wealth of information about that fabric roll’s production history and quality.
“This powerful tool equips textile manufacturers with the means to elevate product value, increase productivity, and stay ahead of the dynamic industry landscape,” Smartex informed.
Smartex Loop also allows factories to pinpoint fabric roll issues, identifying the exact machine, worker, or yarn supplier involved.
This unprecedented visibility enhances quality alignment and transparency between knitting facilities and dye house partners, fostering trust, reducing waste, and minimizing delays.
“Smartex Loop future-proofs businesses by providing foundations for better data collection and communication, enabling them to meet the rising demand for transparency and accountability in the textile industry while improving operational efficiency,” Gilberto Loureiro, CEO of Smartex added.
The company is also showing its Automatic Roll Grading at ITMA. This tool enables objective and automatic grading of all fabric rolls, departing from the subjective and sample-based approach, currently prevalent in the textile industry.
Leveraging Smartex Core’s advanced camera and light system, the Smartex Platform analyses captured photos to provide consistent and accurate grading.
