Cardboard box size design

The Cardboard box size is closely related to the product protection, purchase costs, freight costs and so on, thus the correct cardboard box size design becomes critical. We can make a model cardboard box to test our established size for large quantities of products, but the bulk of goods is in small quantities, the number of cardboard boxes required is relatively fewer, when asked to do a model box somewhat wasted. So the basic knowledge to the cardboard box size design is particularly important.

For the cardboard box size design, firstly we need to know the commonly paper material, for example, 3-layer paperboard includes K3K、A3A、B3B、B3C、C3C、333、W3B、W3C、W33 etc., their calipers generally around 0.3cm to 0.45cm, no more than 0.5cm, 5-layer paperboard includes K3K、A3A、B3B、B3C、C3C、333、W3B、W3C、W33 etc., their calipers generally around 0.5cm to 0.7mm, no more than 0.7mm, 7-layer paperboard includes K≡K、A≡A、B≡B etc., their calipers generally around 1cm, no less than 0.8cm. The selection of paper material is important in the cardboard box size design.

The product size is the most important indicator in the cardboard box size design, and in most cases we can even add 0.5-0.7cm based on product size to develop the 3-layer cardboard box size. In the actual situation, we need to take into account the dimensional tolerance of the product, if the products are the standard plastic parts, die castings, stampings and other dimensionally stable product, the method is accurate enough to formulate the cardboard box size. If the product are handicraft products, we should set the cardboard box size of the product on the assembly line to develop a slightly larger cardboard box. Under the premise of ensuring product quality and safety, the best cardboard box size design principle is that minimized the cardboard box volume for more products.

In addition to accurately formulated cardboard box size design, the cardboard box material selection and style is also particularly important, superior quality also refers to superior price, which is unfavorable to product manufacturing costs, but the cardboard box with bad quality which can not meet the needs of the product safety, so a reasonable material selection can solve the contradiction between the two. Such as the product with heavy weight, in addition to select a good quality cardboard also need to take account into the locking bottom, it should be stable, firm. If the product with sharp angle and light weight, we can take priority to protect the sharp angle and then choose ordinary cardboard box. No matter when the product should not be shaking inside the cardboard box, this will greatly reduce the protective function of the cardboard box.
