In mold labeling machine
In mold labeling (IML) or in mold decoration (IMD) technology utilizes a dedicated labeling system that uses the principle of electrostatic adsorption inside the mold to send label paper into the mold cavity. After injection, the label is fused with the plastic product into one
Direct power on method
Install the electrostatic generator directly on the robotic arm. When the robotic arm places the label on the mold, the electrostatic generator is controlled by PLC to discharge the label, and the label will be adsorbed on the mold.
Indirect power up method
A metal plate with anti-static material adhered to the robotic arm, the robotic arm sucks on the label and charges it through an electrostatic generator, and finally places it inside the mold
Advantages of in mold labeling
The label and plastic product are fused together, making the trademark tightly integrated with the plastic body. The label is durable, not easy to fall off, not easy to damage, and not easy to mold; The appearance is quite beautiful, as if there are no labels, and it has a certain anti-counterfeiting effect to reduce production processes, such as corona treatment, and improve product quality. The recycling rate of plastic products is higher
The advantages of using electrostatic methods
No need to change existing molds, no need for special design and manufacturing of new molds, will not leave any marks on the surface of plastic parts, and will not produce any side effects; No need to clean
