Uster Technologies serves the World’s textile market, one of the three largest in the worldwide economy. Consumers of textile products around the world demand quality in the products they use, ranging from garments, apparel and home furnishings through to industrial and technical textiles such as safety belts and airbags.
All the way through the production process, from the raw textile fiber, such as cotton, to the final finished fabric, manufacturers have a desire to measure and monitor the process in order to optimize quality and to maximize efficiency. They want to ensure the production of materials that meet the requirements of their customers. For example, the quality and feel of a light cotton shirt or a suit depends upon the quality of the yarns used in production and on the effectiveness of the weaving or knitting process to produce a ’fault-free’ fabric. |
