Abstract

This article deals with the modelization of the reasoning of an expert in dyeing. The dyeing operation is one of the latest stage in the whole textile process which alters the intrinsic properties of the articles. At present, there are expert systems for dyeing industries. Most of them have been developed by dyes and chemical auxiliary suppliers, and these tools are not widely used in dyeing factories. This paper describes the dyeing operation, and the rules of the expert in dyeing. The objects that he reasons about, his reasoning, and the critical points that he considers are also presented.
