KnitLocal™

Uninterrupted Production.
Zero Human Error. Total Roll Traceability.

A resilient, local management system designed for textile mills equipped with KnitNet smart nodes—ensuring 100% continuous data tracking and automated fabric weighing even during internet outages.

Why KnitLocal?

Internet disruptions can freeze cloud tracking, delay roll weighing, and force manual data entry—introducing costly human errors. KnitLocal keeps your production floor running seamlessly offline while automating data flow from machine to scale

KnitLocal has been developed to solve this challenge by ensuring that:

Offline Operation

Production continues uninterrupted, independent of internet connectivity.

Automatic Weighing

Roll weight is recorded automatically and accurately.

Zero Human Error

Human error in weighing and data entry is reduced to zero.

Traceability System

End to End Roll Identification Before Labeling.

Key Features & Capabilities

LiDAR Technology

Real Time Offline Floor View

Displays live status and production metrics of all circular knitting machines across factory floors without internet dependency.

Smart NFC Roll ID System

Reads roll NFC cards to trace every produced roll.

Operator Quality Logs

Enables operators to record fabric defect notes and quality comments directly at local terminals.

Pattern Compatible

30 Day Offline Data Storage

Securely stores comprehensive roll records locally for up to one month and auto syncs with the cloud when the internet connection recovers.

Complete Detection

Automatic Scale Integration

Connects directly to digital factory scales to auto record exact roll weights, completely eliminating manual entry errors.

Smart NFC Roll

Smart NFC Roll ID System

(Physical Traceability Feature)

End to End Roll Identification Before Labeling

KnitLocal introduces an innovative Machine Assigned NFC Tagging System that links physical fabric rolls directly to their digital production record:

Machine Level NFC Encoding

Dedicated re usable NFC cards are assigned to each knitting machine. Upon roll completion, the roll's unique ID and production details are instantly written onto the card.

Station to Station Identification

As the fabric roll moves across factory stations (inspection, weighing, or storage), the NFC card is scanned to retrieve exact roll details without relying on paperwork or continuous WiFi.

Seamless Final Tagging

Once the roll reaches the final station, reading the NFC card automatically triggers the printing and heat pressing of the durable KnitID QR label ensuring zero mismatch between physical fabric and digital records.
