Metallic in mould label for injection moulding on plastic paint bucket

Q:What are the influencing factors of the cut size of the IML in mold label and how to measure it correctly?
1) Mainly shrinkage.The label material and the shrinkage ratio of the injection molding machine will all affect the effect after injection molding. It is necessary to measure and test about the product material, label thickness and the shrinkage of the injection molding machine itself, and finally achieve the perfect effect, which can be completely seamless.
2) Make the correct cut size according to the product. It is best if the customer can provide product samples, and then we can make the cut size based on the samples.

Q:The reason why the IML label cannot be attached to the mold/Reasons for insufficient static electricity of IML labels:

1) There is no static electricity added to the label when it leaves the factory. It is equipped with an static charger/electrostatic generator to add static electricity.
2) The environment is humid and static electricity will run away during shipping. Equipped with an electrostatic device/static charger.
3) If you cannot add static electricity using an electrostatic generator, it may be related to the material of the label. Contact us to confirm the reason.
4) If it is manual injection molding, try using a wet rag and adding water.
5) If it is a robot, it may be caused by static electricity removal at the factory.

Q:The color of the IML label becomes darker after injection molding:

1) The base color of the product is too dark, you can use two layers of white when designing.
2) Thicken and deepen the white ink, or use high-concentration white.

Q:The label color is different from the design file:

1) The customer provides an electronic draft or sample label. After the customer confirms the color and size, the maximum difference between the produced label and the design file is 5%.
2) Determine some spot color numbers according to the Pantone color card.
