Mahlo GmbH + Co. KG, leader in developing and manufacturing modern textile machinery and quality control systems, located in Saal/Donau, welcomes Rainer Mestermann as new Chief Executive Officer as of December 1st 2011. The graduate engineer comes from Thermo Fisher Scientific in Erlangen, Germany; who is an internationally active supplier for measuring systems for flat webs. During his professional career, Mr. Mestermann held various positions, most recently as Managing Director and head of the global sales and marketing department, where he successfully developed the company further.
Ralph Greenwood-Mahlo about the new CEO: „We are very pleased to welcome such a qualified and field experienced successor to the Management of Mahlo GmbH +Co. KG. Mr. Mestermann will adapt Mahlo to current market trends and keep the company on the course for success with his long international sales and marketing experience, his pronounced technical understanding and his profound market and product knowledge. Mahlo has positioned itself successfully on an international basis as a leading company for sophisticated solutions in developing and manufacturing of machines and systems for the textile, coating, foil and paper industries. So a perfect base was created to further develop and lead the company. We are looking forward to work with Rainer Mestermann – together we will continue to look for continuity and innovation.“
Ralf Hopp, who came from the company Baumueller Nuernberg Group, a leading specialist for automation solutions and for drive systems, switched to Mahlo in October 2009 to assume a position in Management and he leaves the company now in mutual agreement. Ralph Greenwood-Mahlo, Participator – Chairman of advisory board at Mahlo GmbH + Co. KG about Hopp: „Mr. Hopp was a loyal and professional colleague and we very much appreciated his strategic working and technical understanding The Mahlo family thanks him for his dedication and the trusting cooperation.“

ATMOSET SMT-12
Drum dryer control
|
Optimising the heat output depending on the product
The ATMOSET SMT controls the residual moisture of the fabric with steam-heated drum dryers. The key to point accuracy and very even residual moisture is found in two superposed control loops.
The first control loop is used to measure and control the condensate temperatures of the drum dryers combined in groups. The deviation of the condensate temperature from a preset setpoint is used to directly calculate the amount of energy required for drying. The steam supply is adjusted to the moisture of the incoming product.
The second control loop captures the residual moisture of the product after leaving the dryer, using special measuring electrodes. It supplies the pulses to adjusting the setpoint for the condensate temperature control so that the product obtains the desired residual moisture. The intelligent controller algorithms used provide for a rapid but especially stable control of the residual moisture, taking all input variables into account.
Benefit
The ATMOSET SMT enables a stable and effective drying process. The optimal degree of drying is always reached, regardless of the weight of the product or the web speed. Continuity of the production process and reproducibility of the product quality are ensured. The energy consumption of the dryers drops significantly due to the optimised heat output. This saves energy costs. The drum dryers can be optimally dimensioned during preparatory project planning with the customers resulting in reduced investment costs.

ORTHOPAC CRVMC-12
The Specialist for Carpets and Technical Textiles
|
An ORTHOPAC CRVMC is especially designed for high mechanical loads. In particular, the specially reinforced drive unit for roller positioning ensures perfect straightening even under the highest product tension loads. The system also features a solid, reinforced frame design, reinforced roller bearings as well as larger diameters of bow and skew rollers scanner unit. Electronics, display and operating station, etc. correspond to the design of the ORTHOPAC RVMC; all scanner heads are adjustable.
The system can process very low (carpet) but also very high product speeds up to 100 m/min (technical wovens). It is also available as manual unit. It can subsequently be retrofitted with a scanner (normal or hybrid) or a PATCONTROL PCS pattern detection without problems.
Product-highlights
- Reinforced construction; large roller diameter
- Suitable for tensional forces of up to 3 kN
- Working widths up to 5500 mm possible
- User-friendly, easy-access design
- Optimised product contents
- Innovative roller positioning drive

AQUALOT AMF
Moisture measurement
|
New Sensor of Optipac VMC-12 / Orthopac RVMC-12
Tasks
Continuous, exact and non-contacting monitoring of the moisture content of meter goods is extremely import for the quality and productivity in many process control processes in the nonwovens, textile, paper and plastics industry as well as in coating technology.
Benefit
AQUALOT AMF permits the exact determination of the total material moisture. The measurement is contactless and non-destructive. The ascertained moisture value can be supplied to a controller as actual value to regulate the web speed, dryer output or squeezing pressure.
Applications- Moisture measurement of textiles, carpets, tyre fabric, nonwovens, glass mats, paper, cardboard, foils, ceramic foil, adhesive tape, abrasives, veneering, sponge cloth, etc.
- Application measurement of water-soluble coatings (e.g. colour, glue or foam)
- Measurement of intermediate moisture - Residual moisture measurement after dryers
- Online monitoring of dying processes - Contactless measurement of the size application

ASHPRO FMA
Measuring the ash content
|
New Sensor of Optipac VMC-12
Tasks
The ash content affects important properties of the paper such as transparency, whiteness, dye absorption or coating. These properties and thus the quality of the product can be controlled by changing the ash content. Observing the max. ash content is also of fundamental importance with paper manufacturing using recycled paper. Furthermore, exceeding specifi c upper limits of the ash content causes increasing losses of fi bre and results in higher disposal costs.
Solution
The exact determination of the ash content is made possible through a sensor combination of Gravimat DFI and Ashpro FMA. The Gravimat DFI determines the grammage of the paper web - regardless of its fi llers. The Ashpro FMA measures the reduction of the emitted radiation as it passes through the product web. This reduction is primarily caused by the fi llers. The total ash content can be determined through reference to the grammage of the product.
Product highlights
- Contactless determination of the ash content and the grammage
- Intelligent sensor with fast microprocoessor for measurement pre-processing
- Variable measuring gap geometry for different customer requirements

CEREMAT MMZE-12
Controlled product width and position
|
Problem
Drifting of the webs lateral to the running direction of the product cannot be avoided with the different finishing processes of textile product webs without using appropriate systems. Lattice centring devices are normally used here. With conventional centring devices, split battens with rigid lining are used to expand the product. The product is thereby stretched to different degrees during expansion, more in the middle than at the edges. This causes uneven results during further treatment, for example, during printing.
Solution
The new CEREMAT MMZE offers several advantages at the same time. Using flexible lining on the battens causes the uniform expansion of the product over the entire width of the web.
In addition, the new mechanism provides a much larger expanding effect than with the normal centring device; larger variations in width can be compensated for. Crease formation can be completely eliminated.
The desired width and product positions can be set and controlled through the edge sensors. The product enters the machine with the pre-selected position and width and thereby ensures a troublefree process (e.g. intake foulard, sanfor, minimum waste when trimming edges) and high-quality product.
