Methodological Principles In Design

The packaging structure design is based on the actual conditions of packaging and production, and the design of the packaging's external structure and internal accessories based on scientific principles. The design must ensure that the structure has sufficient strength, stiffness, and resistance to other environments. From the purpose of packaging, the following two aspects must be considered, one is to protect the primary function of the product, and the other is to meet the important characteristics of modern packaging, such as transportation and processing characteristics.

Qualified carton products start with the correct structural design. Designers must not only truly understand the customer's intentions, but also be familiar with the post-processing process. Only in this way can the customer's intention be transformed into a qualified product, and the subsequent processing can be guaranteed to proceed smoothly. The designer should understand the nature, shape, size, weight of the contents, the arrangement of the contents, the transportation method, the stacking method, the storage environment, the transportation route and time of the contents, and the carton box and production materials. information.

There are some technical and guiding ideological problems in domestic carton design, and a lack of systematic analysis makes the designed packaging unable to meet the requirements of ergonomics and technical and economic rationality. This is reflected very clearly in the carton size design.

China only makes clear regulations on the carton box type, but there is no specific requirement on the size of the carton, which is mainly determined by the designer. The designer mainly considers two factors when determining the size of the carton: one is to be able to contain the contents; the other is to have sufficient strength. In fact, in addition to the contents of the package, there are many other factors that restrict the size and shape of the carton, such as ergonomics, the size of the pallet, the size of the truck compartment, the size of the container space, and the Size and so on. These factors are both independent of each other and restrict each other; both the packaging function and convenience must be considered. Therefore, only by systematically and comprehensively grasping all the constraints during design, can the size of the carton be truly and reasonably determined.
