Carton shock-proof packaging, also known as cushioning packaging, occupies an important position in various packaging methods. From production to use, the product goes through a series of transportation, storage, stacking, loading and unloading processes, and is placed in different environments. In any environment, it will forcefully act on the product and cause mechanical damage to the product. In order to prevent damage to the product, we must try to reduce the influence of external forces. The so-called shockproof packaging refers to packaging that takes certain protective measures to reduce the impact and vibration of the contents and protect it from damage. Common cushioning packaging materials include foamed plastics, honeycomb cardboard, pulp molding, corrugated cardboard, paper, air cushions and plant fiber packaging cushioning materials. Due to the modern packaging slow; many medium materials are disposable, many countries and regions have made higher regulations on environmental protection, which has prompted the further development of green buffer packaging, and many green packaging materials have also appeared, such as: Shredded paper, crepe paper, corrugated cardboard, pulp molding, biodegradable plastic, honeycomb cardboard, etc. In the carton structure design, how can products with shockproof requirements be packaged with shockproof technology? The main requirements of customers When conducting research on customers, we will always encounter products with different shapes. Existing automobile parts and other individual product weights Very high, there are also fragile items such as glass products. The requirements of customers are also different, the main requirements are as follows:
Reduce costs (some other packaging such as wooden boxes, etc. hope to be replaced by cartons);
The storage and transportation cycle is too long, and the strength of the carton needs to be decayed during the long-term storage and transportation;
The influence of warehouse environment on stacking. Towards, the cartons are required to have high compression resistance;
Environmental requirements (for example, some foamed plastics need other environmentally friendly products to replace);
Transport and sales packaging are integrated;
The influence of packing speed;
More specifications, integrated packing box, etc. The main aspect of earthquake-proof design is to ensure that the strength of the carton itself can cope with the hazards caused in the storage and transportation environment. This requires a comprehensive design and simulation test on the carton to achieve the effect of effectively protecting the product. When designing the carton structure, there are mainly the following aspects in response to the carton earthquake:
Corrugated Gasket: Gasket is the most common kind of protection measure to deal with resonance and damage to the product in the process of carton transportation. In addition, the gasket has a simple structure and is easy to produce, which is especially suitable for the protection of products with relatively regular shapes.
Corrugated grille: The grille is used to separate and package small items, and is generally used with cartons. The design of the carton grille must be compact and effectively fix the product in the grille so that it does not collide. When used for the packaging of metal coated articles, the effect is remarkable. The appropriate corrugated grille can also improve the compressive strength of the whole carton. Of course, the grille of the carton is also used to separate items, which is more cost-effective than packaging individual products separately.
Corner protector: Develop carton corner protectors, with a wide range of types, including folded corner protectors and glued corner protectors. Generally, the corner protectors combined with the product are designed according to the appearance and shape of the product. Many of the products that use corner protectors are of higher quality, so the overall compression and resistance of the carton; the impact of impact and resonance should be considered when designing.
Single-sided corrugated paper: When packaging glass products, it is a more commonly used packaging paper. Used together with carton corner protectors, the shockproof effect is more obvious. Utilizing the extensibility of single-sided corrugated paper, it is suitable for packaging cylindrical glass products. When choosing single-sided corrugated paper for product protection, different corrugated types can be adopted according to different product weights, which can effectively prevent damage to the product caused by resonance.
Hanging packaging carton: For this type of packaging, it can be made of a carton with corner protectors, or it can be made of corrugated cardboard. Due to the unique structural design of this kind of carton, the product can get a similar suspension space in the carton, which can effectively deal with the damage caused by the product in the transportation environment.
This kind of carton can be used as the transportation package of the carton as well as the sales package of the carton. Because of its high cost, it is suitable for packaging products with high added value.
In the structural design of the carton, no matter which kind of anti-vibration method of the carton is adopted, the six-step method of carton structural design must be followed. That is to conduct a comprehensive survey of customers, master the logistics and storage and transportation environment; use appropriate materials and protection types in the design, etc. After the design is completed, it is necessary to perform resonance, drop and compression tests on the sample box, simulate and calculate the environmental hazards of the product during storage and transportation, and check whether the product can be effectively protected. Not only must the product be effectively protected, but also to prevent excessive packaging of the product. The cost must also be considered in the design.
