PC-servo-based control enhances performance, flexibility of in-mould labelling system

By admin October 24, 2019 6:42 pm IST

In-mould labelling (IML) is the ideal solution for today’s customer requirements in the plastics industry, especially in the packaging segment. Companies need high-quality, durable machines with maximum availability that can produce a wide range of packaging designs with great flexibility and minimal cycle times. To implement such systems efficiently, Swiss specialty machine manufacturer Beck Automation implements PC-based control and drive technology from Beckhoff as its standard automation technology. In each processing step, the IML system takes six labels at a time from a magazine and places them into the open mould of the injection moulding machine.
