Mahlo at Plastics Technology Expo 2022

At the PT XPO March 29-31 in Rosemont, Illinois, at booth #3912 Mahlo will give visitors access to the latest process enhancing equipment and technology.

In a booming plastics processing market in the USA, Mahlo America Inc. is the go-to provider for on-line measurement and control solutions for continuous web processes. At the PT XPO March 29-31 in Rosemont, Illinois, at booth #3912 Mahlo will give visitors access to the latest process enhancing equipment and technology.

 

Our expert for web gauging solutions Eric Reber introduces the renowned quality measurement system Qualiscan QMS that offers concrete solutions for efficient production to the plastics industry. The modular system, which is also composed of sensors and measuring frames, measures, records, and controls critical parameters such as basis weight, moisture or layer thickness over the entire fabric width. In this way, the energy efficiency of the production systems can be drastically increased, the raw material costs can be optimised, and production can be more sustainable.

The measurement technologies include beta sensors, X-ray, laser, infrared and white light interference. Choosing from this broad range of products, plastic producers can get an individual system designed that fits exactly their demands. If they then have the data of their production line, they know where there is a need for optimization and can react.

"Manufacturers are faced with the challenge that the demand for plastic fabric products is constantly increasing. However, the products should not only be manufactured quickly and in large quantities, but also in a way that conserves resources," says Reber. “And of course, manufacturing still must be profitable. Mahlo is up for this challenge with its Qualiscan QMS!”
