Next stop Cairo - Mahlo to exhibit at Egy Stitch & Tex 2018

Weaving, spinning, sewing, embroidery, knitting, or finishing: no matter what sector, textile industry players don’t want to miss the Egy Stitch & Tex exhibition in Cairo. For all decision makers and specialists, world market leader Mahlo and its partner Newtrac Trading will present its latest straightening technologies in Hall 4, booth 4A3. Their weft straighteners offer the Egyptian textile producers the perfection they are striving for.

The textile sector is the rising star in Egypt’s economy, accounting 30 per cent of total industrial production. To keep it that way, producers are willing to invest in their machinery and enhance the production process. For almost every demand, Mahlo has the perfect solution. The weft straightener Orthopac RVMC-15 is the epitome for straight goods.

Based on experience reaching back to the year 1945, the machine offers the latest technology for correcting distortions. The modular straightening and process control system ensures a straight-thread product before and after the drying or fixing process and optimises the processes all around the stenter. This increases quality and saves resources and energy.

Another useful tool, the Mahlo team will present at Egy Stitch, is the process control Optipac VMC-15. With its help, the producer can measure and control critical parameters like dwell time, thread density or residual moisture. The systems have not only proven highly successful with Egyptian leading textile manufacturers. They are the go-to technologies for producers all over the world, who want to ensure high-quality goods for their clients.

Mahlo and Newtrac Trading are happy to share their expertise at the ultimate meeting place for the Egyptian textile industry.

Smart Quality Control for Technical Textiles

In the end, what matters is the result: a filter that performs reliably, a membrane that remains stable in storm conditions, a composite material with precisely defined properties. But the path to achieving this is demanding. In the production of technical textiles, numerous parameters interact – and even the smallest deviations can have major consequences.

New Gravimax MMX-R X-ray sensor platform opens up new application fields

The demands placed on quality control in web-based production processes are increasing: materials are becoming more complex, basis weights are varying more widely, and at the same time, pressure is growing to make processes more efficient and transparent. Precise measurement data across the entire web width has therefore become a key factor in ensuring stable production processes. With its new Gravimax MMX-R sensor platform, Mahlo introduces a radiometric measurement solution designed to set new standards in determining basis weight and material composition. The platform combines advanced X-ray technology with newly developed signal processing, enabling measurement tasks that previously often required multiple sensor technologies.
