Mold and Plate in Corrugated Carton Manufacturing
In the world of cardboard manufacturing, the use of molds and plates is considered a fundamental principle as a design guideline and standard. Molds and plates in cardboard manufacturing are essential as reference models in the production and design process of packaging. In the design of boxes and packages, standard molds are widely used to ensure uniformity and high quality. These molds are designed with attention to geometric and aesthetic principles to create boxes with precise shapes and dimensions.
A mold is a specialized tool used to cut and shape packaging materials. You can think of a mold as a tool that is shaped in a specific way to cut custom packaging. There are many different types of molds used in the packaging industry, each with its own unique features and applications. Here are some of the most common types of molds used in the corrugated box industry.
Cliché in Corrugated Box Manufacturing
A cliché is a printing plate with your brand’s custom logo on it that is used for foil printing. Clichés are made of metal and are mounted in machines that mark boxes, bags, labels, and other packaging materials. The packaging industry has undergone significant changes in recent decades, shaping several major business trends. Two of these trends, sustainability and digital (especially in e-commerce), are expected to create significant challenges for industry leaders, as well as once-in-a-lifetime transformative opportunities. The use of clichés in the packaging industry has become a common practice in packaging design. However, with the growing concern for sustainability, clichés and near-meaningless environmental claims have become a major issue. Unfortunately, many businesses are not necessarily concerned with understanding the complex sustainability issues that surround their products. As a result, a significant amount of sustainability jargon is at risk of not only being misleading, but also losing its meaning altogether. Today, there are a variety of cliché printing methods available, each with its own advantages and disadvantages. Here we explore some of the most common cliché printing methods used in the packaging industry.
Application of Zinc in Cardboard Production
Zinc is a metal that has been used in the packaging industry for many years. It is typically used as a coating on steel or aluminum cans to prevent corrosion and preserve product quality. Zinc is also used as a nano-particle to increase the mechanical strength of packaging materials and transfer antioxidant or antimicrobial effects. In addition to its use as a coating, zinc is also used in the production of biodegradable polymeric materials based on PVC. The use of zinc-containing additives in polymeric materials improves their biodegradability in natural conditions. These materials are widely used in the packaging industry for a variety of applications such as medical devices, toys, artificial leather, and cable products. The use of zinc in the packaging industry is expected to grow in the coming years. According to a report by StartUs insight, one of the top 10 trends in the packaging industry is the use of nanotechnology in packaging. It is expected that zinc nanoparticles, by increasing the mechanical strength of packaging materials, will play an important role in this trend.
