Vertical loading Commonly loading way, it is easy for mechanized production; such as grain and powder. Horizontal loading The basic design is the same with vertical loading, only changes the open direction. Automation equipment is more complex. Top loading Some products require bigger diameter loading. This type of folding carton is often designed with KDF( knocked-down-flat) or flat sheets delivered. Dimensionally unstable products (such as clothing) tend to use the top loading design, as well as toys. 35 / 93 http://www.packmage.com

48. 48. The characteristics of folding carton3.1 The bearing characteristicsAs we all know but may not pay special attention to thephenomenon: the bearing force of flat sheet cardboard issmall, once creasing and properly folded, it could bear greatpressure.48 / 93http://www.packmage.com
49. 49. The characteristics of folding carton3.2 The influence of the two sides of the paper on structure designNo matter ordinary cardboard or corrugated board has two sides, ordinarycardboard has a surface layer and a bottom layer, corrugated cardboardhas out layer paper and inner layer paper.It influences the molding when folding, which need to be taken into accountin the structure design. a Inner fold 90 b Outer fold 90 c Inner fold d Outer fold1-bottom layer 2-surface layer 3-bottom layer 4-surface layer 49 / 93 http://www.packmage.com
50. 50. The characteristics of folding carton3.3 The influence of the two sides of the paper on structure designThere is an example Caliper 2mm, Length 40mm.The creasing line is on the middle of the cardboard. Then we start to fold.50 / 93http://www.packmage.com
51. 51. The characteristics of folding carton3.4 The influence of the two sides of the paper on structure design Therere two concerns: 1. the length of the cardboard is 40 mm before folding, after folding the inner size isnt 40/2=20mm,it is 19mm because of the caliper. 2. The first statement is not entirely accurate,because of the two sides of the paper, when folding on the middle, the internal loss is different with different specifications of the cardboards, it need to be taken into account. 51 / 93 http://www.packmage.com
52. 52. The characteristics of folding carton3.6 The Offset Because of the dust flap under the cover, to be strictly the panel connect with the cover should add a caliper, else the cover will be hindered by the dust flap when folding. The additional caliper is offset. 52 / 93http://www.packmage.com
53. 53. The characteristics of folding carton3.7 The texture directionDuring the folding carton manufacturing process, the creasing line can effectivelycontrol the cardboard deformation, its role can not be ignored.As the fiberorientation, so that the cardboard folding onthe creasing line, the force on thetransverse indentation line (the line parallel to the creasing line) is bigger thanthe longitudinal creasing line (the line parallel to longitudinal creasing line), sothe bounce of transverse creasing line is bigger, thus increasing tension of thecardboard surface and enhance the strength of the carton.As the fiber alignment, and the stiffness and binding force for the same kind ofcardboard longitudinal fiber were greater than the transverse, which leads to thelongitudinal stiffness greater than the transverse board; in addition, becausemost of the carton stacking flat folded for transportation and storage, so thecarton need resistance to repeated folding to avoid the creasing line crack whichmight affect the appearance and strength of carton.Thus when design the texture direction of the folding cartion, it needs to considerthe different of vertically and horizontally physical properties of the cardboardand the creasing line position. 53 / 93http://www.packmage.com
54. 54. The characteristics of folding carton3.8 The texture direction design of TubesGenerally, the longitudinal texture shouldbe vertical with the main creasing line(longer creasing line).Advantages It makes the 4 surfaces of the box bodysmooth, avoid ballooning phenomenon. It is helpful to high speed gluer machine. The creasing line is not easy to burst andbreak(especially on thick paper ).When the carton size is smaller andaccuracy requirement is not too high, itcould apply mixed step and repeat ignorethe texuture direction, thereby saving cost. 54 / 93http://www.packmage.com
55. 55. The characteristics of folding carton3.9 The texture direction design of Tubes with curved surfaceThe bending resistance of the sheet transverse(parallel to thetexture direction) is smaller than longitudinal,which means thecardboard transverse bending easier, with the curved surface, thetexture direction of the folding carton should be perpendicular tothe curved creasing line.We can clearly the horizontal of box a is easy to bend so that thebox body is formed into a very smooth arch.While box b on thecontrary, because the creasing line design of paperboard isunreasonable caused the box body distortion.55 / 93http://www.packmage.com
56. 56. The characteristics of folding carton3.10 The texture direction design of Trays The length direction of the tray folding carton should be perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the cardboard.In this case it provides higher stiffness in a short span, facilitates the cartons strong and straight, and the transverse creasing line on the length direction gives the carton more strength. 56 / 93http://www.packmage.com
57. 57. The characteristics of folding carton3.11 The texture direction design of regular polygon trays The texture direction design of the regular polygon tray, one plan is the longitudinal cardboard parallel to one of the box bottom corner angle bisector, another is longitudinal cardboard vertical to one of the box bottom corner angle bisector.Both two kinds of texture design have deficiencies, both affected the carton folding. The hexagonal box also has the problem. With the increase of the number of polygon box bottom, gradually tend to circle,the circle has no direction, so the more sides the polygon tray has, the smaller difference of the two kinds of plans, but the best choice is texture direction design which the board longitudinal vertical to the bisector lines of the bottom angle.57 / 93http://www.packmage.com
58. 58. The characteristics of folding carton3.12 The texture direction designFor irregular folding cartons, the texture direction design should obey the basiccardboard texture direction design rules, but the irregular box has uncertainty, wesuggest make samples to test first then choose which one texture directiondesign is more reasonable. 58 / 93 http://www.packmage.com

60. 60. Mathematics in the folding carton structure design4.1 How to decide the inner size of the carton box We often see some cartonFor example, if the product size is 10*10*15 packaging rupture, deformationcm, caliper is 1mm, the inner size of the carton during transportation,this kind ofbox should be 10.1*10.1*15.2cm. circumstance except the paper strength is not enough, collision, one big issue is packaging size relatively big than the product. Generally, the length and width of the inner size of the carton box should be one caliper larger than the product, the depth should be 2 times caliper larger than the product.60 / 93 http://www.packmage.com
