For visitors of SWITEKK website will find that for the IML system no matter if it's side entry IML robot or Top Entry IML Robot, you can see a ring just outside the mold area in some of the IML system but not to the other IML system. Why would it happen and what's the function of this ring to the IML system?

The ring installed is a static charging ring. For a better understanding of the function of this static charging ring we'll need to know the types of the labels which we're using in an IML project. For an IML container made from PP (Polypropylene) there're two main types of IML labels, the regular material IML labels which could be easily static charged from the inner side of the label and the metallic label of which has a metallic layer will releas the static immediately. In this case we'll need to have the label static charged from outside of the label. That's why an extra static charging ring is to be installed to the IML system to ensure that the metallic IML label could be well static charged.
