The Solution

AutoMate conducted a thorough on-site assessment to pinpoint the root cause of the label tearing issue which was attributed to misaligned application equipment on the production line. Additionally, the team identified that a change in label liner material could further mitigate the problem.

The Result

The combined effort resulted in a successful resolution of the label tearing problem. The misalignment of the label applicator was rectified and the issue was further mitigated by adopting a label liner with enhanced strength.
