The principles of corrugated box design

The corrugated box structural design starts from the packaging and the actual production conditions, the carton packaging shape and internal accessories design based on scientific principles. The corrugated box design need to ensure that the structure has sufficient strength, hardness and resistance to other environmental capacity. The view from the purpose of the packaging, you must consider the following two aspects, the primary function of protection products, secondly function is to meet modern packaging, such as transportation, processing characteristics.

The qualified corrugated box products, starting from the correct structure design. Designers not only need to understand the customer's real intent, but also familiar with the subsequent processing. Only in this way the designer can turn the customer's intent into qualified products and ensure the smooth progress after processing. Before the corrugated box design, the designer should know the nature of the contents, shape, size, weight, contents of the arrangement, the mode of transport, the contents of the storage environment, transportation routes and time, the carton box template and production materials information.

There are some problems in the technology and guiding ideology of the corrugated box design, the lack of analysis of the system, so that the designed packaging can not meet the requirements of ergonomics, as well as technical and economic rationality. This is very obvious reflected in the corrugated box size design.

Currently, only the carton box template were clearly defined, but there is no specific requirements on the size of the carton it mainly set by the designer. There are two factors need to be considered in the corrugated box size design: firstly it should able to accommodate the contents; secondly it should have sufficient strength. In fact, the factors restricting the size and shape of the carton in addition to the packaging contents, there are many other factors, such as the ergonomic aspects, the size of the corrugated box, the container space, the shelf size, etc.. These factors are independent from each other and mutually restraint each other; it is necessary to consider the packaging function, but also to consider the convenience.

In short, the corrugated box design should according to the types and nature of used manufacturing equipment, production process, the different flutes and the features of the contents. Only mastered the structure, the size related information in the corrugated box design could manufacture the corrugated boxes that protect and beautify the commodities.
