AI Technical Summary
Existing positioning devices are difficult to adapt to cans of different shapes and sizes, resulting in label misalignment, wrinkles, or poor adhesion, which affects product aesthetics and market competitiveness. In addition, traditional mechanisms have long changeover times and require frequent adjustments to positioning components and labeling parameters, increasing production preparation time and labor costs.
The system employs a cross-shaped sliding groove and multi-threaded rod linkage mechanism, combined with motor drive and hydraulic push rod, to achieve precise positioning of the can and three-dimensional spatial adjustment during the labeling process. The positioning rods in four directions can be adjusted synchronously by knob operation, and the elastic structure of springs and telescopic rods automatically compensates for the labeling force, ensuring that the center of the can and the center of the labeling wheel are highly aligned.
It enables rapid and accurate positioning of cans of different sizes, reduces changeover time, avoids label wrinkles or damage, improves labeling accuracy and efficiency, and reduces production preparation time and labor costs.
