METAL DETECTION IN TEXTILE PRODUCTS
According to the Union des Industries Textiles in France, this sector represents 13.9 billion Euros in sales and employs 61,910 people. This industry is an integral part of France’s cultural heritage.
Presence of metals in textiles and consequences
Textiles are frequently contaminated by metallic elements such as staples, needles and pins. In the industrial sector, it is difficult to detect these elements with the naked eye, and their presence can be dangerous.
Why detect metallic elements?
It is extremely important to detect the presence of metals in textiles, both for consumer and worker safety reasons. In addition, early detection of metallic elements in textile products helps to avoid quality defects and the costs associated with possible returns.
