Fabric distortion remains a major challenge in textile production. Left uncorrected, it causes material waste, quality inconsistencies, and production delays. In an industry where speed, accuracy, and reliability are crucial, traditional straighteners often can’t keep up—especially when handling complex fabric behaviors or high distortion dynamics.
The new Orthopac RVMC–20 plus is Mahlo’s latest answer to these challenges. Launched in early 2025, this next-generation automatic weft straightener features a revolutionary double scanning system and an AI-based controller, enabling precision control and distortion correction in real time. It’s not just an upgrade—it’s a complete rethink of how straightening should be done in today’s textile world.
Superior Precision with Double Scanning and AI Control
The RVMC–20 plus introduces a new era of precision in weft straightening through its innovative dual scanning system—one at the inlet (Feed Forward Control) and another at the outlet (Closed Loop Control). This combination ensures real-time analysis and correction of fabric distortion from the very first centimeter. Backed by a powerful AI-based controller, the system continuously optimizes roller positioning for perfect fabric alignment, adapting automatically to any distortion behavior. The result is consistently straight output, reduced human error, and optimal performance across various fabric types and finishing lines.
Maximum Efficiency and Material Savings
RVMC–20 plus achieves in the range 0.5% distortion tolerance faster than RVMC–15, the RVMC–20 plus significantly reducing fabric waste and improving material and cost efficiency. This exception precision ensures smoother production, minimizes fabric rejection, and supports sustainable manufacturing practices.
Reliable, Scalable, and Easy to Integrate
Built on Mahlo’s industry-proven Orthopac platform, the RVMC–20 plus is engineered for long-term reliability using standardized components. Its compact, modular design fits seamlessly into various production setups—whether for dry finishing, wet treatments, inspections, or printing applications. With a user-friendly, easy-to-mount configuration, it offers manufacturers a high-performance solution that’s simple to install, easy to maintain, and capable of scaling with future production needs.
Upgrade Options: Orthopac RVMC–15 plus
For those already using the Orthopac RVMC–15 series, Mahlo now offers a cost-effective upgrade option in the form of the Orthopac RVMC–15 plus. This enhanced model incorporates the new double scanner attachment from the RVMC–20 plus, along with an easy-to-install module that brings existing systems closer to the latest technology standards.
While it doesn’t offer the full AI-based closed-loop functionality of the RVMC–20 plus, the RVMC–15 plus is an excellent choice for users looking to modernize and enhance precision without a full system replacement.
