Detection of a tear of a thread: the presence of an appendix or asymmetrical knots on the back of a handmade carpet board that reaches its thread and pad indicates a tear of the tear of a handmade carpet board. This rupture can occur for many reasons, the most important of which is excessive pulling of the thread, excessive pressure, and … It’s finally seen by knotting in white dots behind the handmade carpet.
Detecting knot defects: one of the things that is done when weaving the carpet is the knitting. When the knots of a ridge are executed, do this to get the knots together properly and well. This eventually leads to uniform nodes.
Detecting the inconsistency of the back and front of the carpet: if the Weaver does not properly fit the knots for any reason, including insufficient skill in performing the work or mapping, there is inconsistency on the back and on the carpet. Of course, this defect can be repaired and fixed if detected before entering the market.
Detecting the lack of matching of the carpet nodes: the nodes should all be aligned in one line. That is, in a ridge the knots should not be up and down.

This diagnosis can be achieved by using the horizontal and vertical symmetry axis behind the handmade carpet board. Another way of distinguishing is that, the placement of corners should also lead to the creation of symmetry.
Carpet numbering detection: the numbering of a carpet board is one of the most important parameters of its purchase and actually introduces the density and strength of that carpet board. This very important thing has a huge impact on the final price of handmade carpeting. It is easy to identify the number by checking the knots on the back of the carpet board. Exquisite carpeting has a number of 50 and above.
Misdiagnosis or misdirection of the carpet: due to the delicacy of handmade carpets and their fine texture, it is possible to tilt any line of tissue or the carpet in general. Of course, to diagnose this defect, you have to check it without a frame, which also prevents visual errors.
