How Does Huarong's IML System Work?
Our fully automated IML system ensures seamless label application and high-speed production. Below is the complete process:
Step 1: Precision Label Pickup & Transfer
- Patented Rotary Label Feeding Mechanism (#M351844) ensures uninterrupted label supply.
- The system accurately picks up pre-printed labels and transfers them to the side-entry robotic arm.

Step 2: Side-Entry Robotic Label Handling
- Patented 2-Axis Shifting IML Automation (#M352509) enables precise label placement.
- Industry's largest 16L shifting robotic arm ensures fast and stable production for large plastic parts.

Step 3: Robotic Label Insertion
- The side-entry robotic arm places the label onto the mold core with high accuracy.
- Uses vacuum adsorption & electrostatic technology to secure label positioning inside the mold cavity.

Step 4: High-Precision Injection Molding
- Once the label is in position, molten plastic is injected into the mold.
- Integrated molding machines & automation reinforce structural stability.
- Servo-driven system optimizes plastic injection with energy savings.

Step 5: Label Fusion & Final Product Ejection
- Molten plastic fuses with the label to create a permanently bonded design.
- The molded part is cooled, solidified, and ejected, completing the process.
- Optimized ejection system ensures defect-free production and fast cycle times.
