In the modern plastic packaging industry, IML technology is widely favored because its label and product are integrated, wear-resistant and waterproof, and have outstanding visual effects. However, with the increase in production capacity demand, companies are also paying more and more attention to the labeling speed, mold change efficiency and label accuracy of the equipment. At this time, an IML High-Speed Robot with flexible design, stable operation and rapid response is particularly critical.
The IML High-Speed Robot launched by GECH is designed for high-speed and high-precision labeling applications. The equipment integrates an advanced three-axis servo drive system, combined with a high-rigidity carbon fiber fixture structure, which can not only achieve a series of actions such as rapid labeling, labeling, and demolding, but also complete a complete labeling and removal cycle in less than 0.7 seconds, truly achieving high speed without losing stability, high efficiency and precision.
The labeling process often needs to face changes in multiple product sizes, multiple mold depths and labeling angles, which is where GECH IML High-Speed Robot highlights its advantages. Its structural design fully considers the adaptability of mold thickness. Through the movable main frame structure, it can quickly respond to the conversion of molds of different thicknesses without changing the host. In addition, it supports a variety of labeling methods, including enveloping labeling, three to five-sided labeling and flat labeling. One machine can be used for multiple purposes, which greatly saves the cost of repeated investment by the enterprise.
With the quick replacement of components and intelligent control system, even when the production line changes orders or molds, there is no need to stop for too long, and flexible production can be easily achieved. This flexibility and compatibility are the key to enterprises standing out in the increasingly fierce manufacturing competition.
Production efficiency is the most intuitive improvement point. An IML High-Speed Robot can adapt to up to 12-cavity molds, which means that multiple finished products can be formed at one time, and they can be placed directly on the conveyor belt with the automatic stacking system, reducing manual intervention and improving the operation efficiency of the entire line.
More importantly, its servo system can provide real-time feedback on the operating position of each axis, allowing operators to accurately monitor and adjust the process, further improving stability and consistency of output.
On the other hand, precision and repeatability are also the most concerned issues for enterprises. GECH continues to optimize the details of the equipment. The fixture is made of strong and lightweight carbon fiber material, which is not easy to deform even in high-frequency operation, ensuring that the label is attached to the correct position to avoid rework or scrap rate due to offset. Higher yield rate means lower raw material loss and less rework time, which directly equals lower unit cost.
This type of IML High-Speed Robot is mainly used in food containers, daily chemical packaging, medical packaging and other industries, such as: ice cream boxes, cream cups, laundry detergent bottles, health care products jars and other in-mold labeling products. Especially in the factory environment that pursues production line automation and maximizes production capacity, it not only saves manpower, but also shows unmatched advantages of traditional labeling methods in terms of stability and consistency.
