Why it's not recommended to have an IML solution with more than 4 cavities for containers which request a wrap+bottom labeling?

For an IML container which request a wrap + bottom labeling will need 2 labels and request a reverse injection technology. With two labels means that there would be 2 sets of magazines and mandrel to stock and pick the labels for the containers. A four cavities design of the mold there would be sufficient space in the IML robot to fit in the extra magazines, but for more cavities mold design the size of the magazine will exceed the limit of the IML robot and will reduce the efficiency of the robot. It would not be an ideal solutions for Wrap + Bottom IML Solutions
