Outer Carton Specifications Requirements
To ensure the line operates optimally for small box packaging and avoid any jamming or malfunction, we recommend your outer cartons to meet the following specifications:
- The carton should be pre-folded, with the first and third crease lines pre-folded once, to fit the packaging machine perfectly.
- The depth of the crease lines should be 2/3 of the paper thickness, to facilitate box folding and shaping.
- The slotting and creasing lines deviation should not exceed 2mm, to ensure the box is perfectly square when opened.
- The folding direction of the box must be accurate, reversed folding will make it unsuitable for the machine.
- The cardboard quality should be consistent with the sample, with smooth edges, no burrs or excess material.
- When folding long sides, there should be no overlapping, leave a 2-3mm gap to avoid jamming during packing.
- The crease line on the long side should be 1/2 to 2/3 of the paper thickness wider than the short side, to prevent wrinkles when sealing.
- The box surface should be flat, dry and with certain roughness, to facilitate vacuum gripping and tape sealing.
- The size error of length, width and height should not exceed 5mm, to ensure accurate positioning during packing.
