Top Entry IML Robot For Lid
Equipment Details
Designed for 200-360T injection molding machines, this 5-axis top-entry IML robot breaks the process limitations of traditional robots with its core 5-axis servo drive configuration, perfectly fitting diverse complex molds and special labeling processes. It realizes integrated automatic operations of label picking, positioning, in-mold labeling, injection molding and automatic part removal, fundamentally improving labeling accuracy and visual consistency for every finished product. High-quality labeling performance, strong process adaptability, high production efficiency and cost control are its core strengths. It accurately meets standardized and large-scale production requirements for plastic bottle caps, food packaging lids, beverage caps and other plastic lid products.
Equipment Advantages
Featuring five core highlights: 5-axis servo control, premium labeling quality, complex-process compatibility, high-efficiency production and cost-benefit optimization, this robot targets typical pain points of in-mold labeling for plastic lids.
Through multi-dimensional coordinated 5-axis motion, it flexibly adjusts its posture according to mold structures and product specifications, and standardizes full procedures including label picking, posture fine-tuning, precise positioning and in-mold laminating, eliminating manual reliance for complex processes.
Running along pre-programmed fixed trajectories and positions, the robot ensures flat and uniformly-positioned labels for every batch, greatly enhancing product appearance and consistency to satisfy demands for high-end packaging production.
Meanwhile, it achieves precise linkage with injection molding machines to match production cycles and boost equipment utilization rate. It reduces manual operations and effectively lowers comprehensive production costs caused by labor input and defective-product losses.
Equipment Parameters
Developed for in-mold labeling of plastic lids on 200-360T injection molding machines, the unit adopts 5-axis servo drive and dedicated in-mold labeling structure as core configurations. It delivers full-range functions: automatic label picking, precise positioning, automatic in-mold labeling and automatic finished-part picking for continuous high-speed production. With outstanding adaptability to complex processes, it guarantees flat, neat and uniformly-positioned labels. Customization is supported. Configurations can be flexibly adjusted according to injection-molding-machine tonnage, mold structure, lid dimension, label specification, mold cavity quantity and production cycle, balancing universality and specialization for diversified production scenarios.

Core Components
All core components adopt modular design for accurate matching with production conditions.
The 5-axis servo system performs precise multi-axis motion control to ensure smooth coordination of all procedures.
The in-mold labeling system handles label grabbing, conveying, positioning and in-mold lamination for different label sizes.
The control system realizes signal linkage between robot and injection molding machine, seamlessly connecting the whole workflow: label picking, mold entry, injection molding, part picking and discharging.
The end-effector is fitted with customized suction cups, clamps and label-picking assemblies to secure stability and precision for various lid types and multi-cavity molds.
Application Site & Customer Feedback
The core bottlenecks in plastic-lid production lie not merely in simple part picking, but in labeling appearance, positional consistency, complex-process adaptability, production efficiency and cost control. Conventional manual-label-placing and manual-picking modes suffer from large errors, low efficiency and high defect rates, failing high-end production requirements. This robot realizes full-process automation and completely replaces repetitive manual work. Program-driven precise operations effectively solve common defects such as label offset, uneven lamination and inconsistent product appearance. It stably keeps up with high-speed production cycles, greatly improves mass-production efficiency and helps enterprises realize cost reduction and quality improvement.
