Mahlo to show expertise at Saigontex 2018

Mahlo GmbH + Co. KG, a leading manufacturer for measuring, control and automation systems of Germany, will participate with its local agency Thach Vang Anh Co. in the 30th SaigonTex show, held in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam from 11 to 14 April. For the Vietnamese Textile market, Mahlo concentrates on straightening and process control technology.

The company appreciates the vast history of Vietnam's textile industry. For hundreds of years, the Vietnamese women were known for weaving thread into beautiful silk. Today, textile is one of the biggest industrial sectors in Vietnam, employing over 2 million people. Therefore, the South East Asian country has become a target market for textile machinery manufacturers. German world market leader Mahlo provides straightening technologies with the weft straightener Orthopac RVMC or energy saving concepts such as the stenter process control system Optipac VMC or the drum dryer control system Atmoset SMT for the numerous mills.

The Orthopac RVMC-15 is a modular straightening and process control system available throughout the entire process of textile outfitting. It combines the functionality of a weft straightener with that of a process control system in one compact device.

It automatically ensures a straight-thread product before and after the drying or fixing process and optimises the processes all around the stenter.

The Optipac VMC-15 measures and controls critical process parameters such as dwell time, thread density, residual moisture, basis weight and exhaust air humidity. The Atmoset SMT regulates the residual moisture of the tissue with steam-heated cylinder dryers. Both devices help to save energy and costs.

Visitors of Saigontex are welcome to visit Mahlo Area Sales Manager Stephan Kehry and representatives of local agency Thach Vang Anh Co. at their joint booth to discuss the individual challenges presented in their line of work.

Mahlo introduces AI-supported Orthopac RVMC-20 plus at ITMA Asia 2026

From November 20 to 24, 2026, Mahlo GmbH + Co. KG will present its system portfolio for the textile industry at ITMA Asia in Shanghai. Together with its local sales and service partner Kuantex and Mahlo China, the Bavarian technology specialist will demonstrate at Booth C22 in Hall 7.1 how intelligent measurement and control technology can improve the quality and efficiency of textile production processes. The spotlight will be on the new Orthopac RVMC-20 plus, which combines precise weft straightening with fully integrated process control.

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.

Orthopac RVMC-20 plus: German Engineering for Smarter Weft Straightening
