IN-MOLD LABEL (IML) - Production Process

IN MOLD LABELS

  • In house development of the labels
  • Inks on PE foil.
  • Top coat : varnish.

INJECTION MOLDING PROCESS

  • The in mold labels are put in the robot per pile.
  • The robot takes the labels 1 by 1 out of the pile in order to place all 4 at the same time in the mould.
  • Adhesion of the labels in the mould is done by electrostatic charging.
  • The head of the robot removes itself from the mould.
  • The mould closes.
  • The normal injection molding cycle begins :
    • The synthetic material is injected in the mould in liquid condition.
    • The warm material at the back of the label ensures good adhesion.
    • After injection, cooling time necessary to solidify the material starts.
    • The mould opens and ejects the crate.
  • The result is a crate with in mould label.

 ADVANTAGES:

 

  • High-gloss.
  • Quadric : photographic reproduction.
  • The printing surface is larger than in screen printing. (maximum printing surface)
  • Shorter passage time.
  • Metallizedlook labels (silver, gold).
