It’s great when we can solve problems for our clients! This week’s story is about a client who was looking for a small initial batch of re-usable shipping boxes that were to be in two sizes (one up to 1m long) and relatively low cost.
Our solution was to design the boxes to be made from 4mm thick black Correx (fluted plastic sheet).
Using SolidWorks 3D software we were able to model the boxes to include all the connection and alignment details and then easily produce the unfolded box details. These were then cut and engraved on our CNC router to produce all the parts needed – in this case the main body and left and right-hand ends.
We then assembled the boxes by folding along marked lines and bonding the components in place with specialist adhesive.
The boxes worked first time and our client was really pleased; a great example of how we can creatively solve design problems and give you the products that you need.
Get in touch to see how we can make what you need – whatever it is!
