In-mold labeling is the use of labels during the manufacture of containers through blow molding,  injection molding, or  thermoforming processes. The labeling serves as an integral part of the final product, which is then delivered as a pre-decorated item. Combining the decoration process with the molding process cuts the total cost, but may increase the manufacturing time.

BOS ROBOTICS designs tailor-made IML Side Entry Robotic Systems to achieve the customer’s goals in the most efficient way.

IML Side Entry Servo Robotic Systems – The fastest and most efficient way to insert a label into a mold. It is extremely effective when the requirement is to use the same system to handle labeling, takeout, and stacking.

IML Top Entry Servo Robotic System – A very cost-effective solution when only label inserting is needed and the product specification allows use of this solution.

BOS ROBOTICS IML robotic systems have a reputation of being high-speed systems (our mold intrusion time is less than a second) as well as having low scrap rates on robust and low maintenance costs. We can design robots for any type of product container or lid and label type such as Flat, “L”, cross, butterfly, “U”, 4 sides and wraparound labels.labeling
