Thus, these sectors, especially textile industry have to adapt and innovate in order to stay in the market and survive. Industry 4.0 aims to promote digital manufacturing by expanding the digitalization and convergence of products, production chain and business models. In this way, it aims to transform the current factories into intelligent, connected and autonomous enterprises. Technological developments have led to the globalization of production making the concept of digitization an important part of the textile industry. The use of digital tools with a high efficiency is a necessity for the textile industry for the developing economy. In order to increase the competitive advantage and contribution of the textile industry, which already has an important role in the national economy, the digital technologies must be used efficiently.
