Variable base thickness directs vacuum-induced deformation to flex lines, preventing sidewall paneling and preserving stackability.
A liner patch overlaps an inner dispensing feature on a carton liner to facilitate opening.
Foldable panels merge gift card carriers with greeting cards to resolve aesthetic appeal versus structural complexity trade-offs.
Segmented rigid links enable 270-degree pivoting motion without large recesses, maintaining a watertight seal between the roof and walls.
A case erector uses a planar bearing surface with a semi-circular channel to pivot arms around a virtual center point.
Out-of-plane deformation creates complex box geometries with improved crush resistance without in-plane material stretching.
A food container bottom uses an upward flange and inward support ring to create a secure structural joint.
A planetary carrier drives two suction arms along hypocycloid paths to transfer folding boxes efficiently.
Air knives propel blanks pneumatically to eliminate gravity-fed misfeeds and enhance feeding reliability.
Pre-scored blanks fold via platen and compression plate to create double glued corners, reducing fabrication time and cost.
A thermal insulating liner uses a honeycomb core and metal foil layer to form a tight seal for container lids.
Oversize segments on a covering blank reduce fold-over lips, minimizing machine complexity while enabling efficient coverage of multi-sided boxes.
Coupling tabs automatically lock bottom panels during re-erection, eliminating adhesive use while reducing storage volume for eight-sided containers.
