[0002] Electronic products are related products based on electrical energy for work, which include many types, such as routers. In the production process of routers, labeling needs to be performed on the routers, and the labels contain various basic information of the routers, so as to identify the production manufacturer, production address, and various operating parameters of the routers.
[0003] At present, labeling of routers is mainly in a semi-automatic manner. Unlike the purely manual manner, which mainly involves manually sticking labels on routers, the semi-automatic manner mainly involves manually placing routers on a labeling position for label sticking, then running a label sticking device, and then sticking labels on the routers by the label sticking device, thereby completing the label sticking process of the routers. However, the above semi-automatic label sticking manner is prone to misalignment of labels on the routers, which is mainly caused by misalignment of the routers when manually placing the routers on the labeling position. When labels are stuck on the routers, misalignment between the labels and the routers occurs to some extent, which affects the appearance of the routers and also affects the sales of the routers.
