Packaging box manufacturers introduce the carton making process

According to the different volume and quality, the size and appearance of the product packaging carton required also varies.
The process of manufacturing cartons is as follows.
1、Determine the scale of the product to be packaged
  The scale of the product directly determines the size of the outer packaging box, its accuracy is very important. Use a tape measure to accurately measure out the length, width and height of the product and record it on paper, on the shape of irregular items, be sure to select the largest point for measurement. On fragile, easily deformed products, if the need to use auxiliary packaging materials (such as foam, pearl cotton, bubble bags, etc.) to strengthen the packaging, the scale of auxiliary packaging materials should also be calculated into the scale of the product.
2、Determine the scale of the cardboard
  After acknowledging the scale of the product, the next important step is to acknowledge the size of the cardboard used to make the carton based on the scale of the product. We know that a rectangular or square carton, its flat open is a rectangular cardboard, the length of the rectangular cardboard is the carton (length + width) x 2, the width of the cardboard is the width of the carton + height. Here I will package a scale is 29cml * 19cmw * 29cmh products as an example to clarify how to determine the size of the cardboard. The scale of the product is 29 * 19 * 29cm, if the carton is completely in accordance with the scale of the product to determine the length, width and height, in the cardboard folded into the carton, the cardboard inward, will take up some of the available space in the carton, will lead to tight packaging or can not be wrapped under the product. Therefore, we need to properly enlarge the length, width and height of the product to ensure that the internal space of the carton meets the product under the package. If the use of 5mm thick cardboard, we generally need to increase the length, width and height of 1cm, then we need the scale becomes 30 * 20 * 30cm, which is the so-called pressure line scale (note that this is not the final outer packaging scale). The length of the cardboard is (length + width) x 2, here that is (30 + 20) * 2 = 100cm, the carton needs to have a joint part when folded, this joint part we can set the scale according to demand, generally about 5cm can, the final demand for the length is 100 + 5 = 105cm; cardboard width is wide + high, that is, 20 + 30 = 50cm; the following is The following is a schematic diagram of the cardboard lay flat, we set the scale of the cardboard, we can also draw a sketch on the paper to mark the corresponding scale to facilitate the manufacture of the later.
  The scale of the length and width of the carton is distance from the mark, because the carton is the same size of the two sides are relative. In addition, we can see the width of the logo, the 20cm divided into two 10cm on both ends, which is due to the general box is in the upper and lower openings from both ends to the center of the seal, we despise the manufacturing process can see very clearly, here no longer detailed.
3、Cutting cardboard
  Will be ready to lay the cardboard flat on the floor, using a tape measure to measure out the length of the demand, and mark with a pen, pay attention to the two points must be selected, because the two points into a straight line. Mark two points, remove the tape measure, with a ruler or other straight things along the direction of the two points pressed cardboard, utility knife along the ruler down to cut the cardboard, pay attention to the body of the knife do not extend too much, the angle between the blade and the cardboard is not too large, with the blade smoothly along the ruler a row in the end, the force is slightly larger, it is best to cut the cardboard at once. The same method to select a good width, with a hobby knife to cut out the required scale of cardboard.
4, manufacturing carton press line
  After the cardboard is cut, what we have to do now is to mark the scale we recorded on the paper to the cardboard. According to our recorded scale, use a tape measure on the cardboard to measure out the corresponding scale, and mark out with a pen, the effect is as follows (black dots are marked scale mark): mark the mark, the next to draw the pressure line. Use a ruler to the two ends of the cardboard corresponding to the two points than Qi, so that it is in the same line, with a knife along the ruler lightly scratch the cardboard, scratch the process of the ruler to press, do not let it move, to avoid scratching is not straight; pay attention to the force to light, just use the tip of the knife to scratch the cardboard skin, see the traces can be, do not scratch too deep to avoid cutting the cardboard: after all the pressure line scratching, available knife handle part of the pressure line along the scratch Deeper, so that when the cardboard folded up more simple, the pressure line is drawn, the next two ends of the opening part of the carton ears to cut open, as shown below, with a knife along the pressure line will be two long side of the ear part cut also (cut to the long side of the pressure line that is cut together with the ears can be cut off about 5mm, so that the two ends in the sealing time will not be propped open, the packaging will be tighter. The short side of the 5cm joint part, the two ends of the ears can be removed, hidden useless, together with the center part can be cut with a knife into a trapezoid. At this point, the press line part of the carton is finished. Packaging box printing
5、Carton forming
  The cardboard will be folded along the long side according to the line of pressure, forming a rectangular body, the joint part in the carton, if there is white glue, you can apply some white glue in the joint part, or perhaps use strong double-sided tape is okay, the joint part will be taped up, and then sealed on the outside with a transparent tape. Will be arbitrary end of the opening part of the folded up, the same with a transparent tape seal. So far, the general box manufacturing is basically completed.
  The product to be packed from one end of the opening into the carton, on the shape of irregular products, if the carton into the carton, the carton and a larger part of the vacancy, to find some soft filler to fill up the vacant part, to the goods in the carton does not shake as appropriate. After the product is loaded into the carton, the opening part will be closed, sealed with tape, it will be a success! The manufacturing process of the carton may seem complicated, but it is not difficult to manufacture, things and materials are also commonly used in everyday life.
  Note that there are two key points in the manufacturing process to master, one is the scale of the items to be packaged must be measured accurately, which directly affects the size of the cardboard box is suitable, the second is to pay attention to the pressure line must be straight, if you scratch the oblique, the shape of the cardboard box changed, scratch the pressure line force to be uniform, the strength to master, to avoid cutting through the cardboard.
