FEFCO 0302 Box Template Generator
Telescope box, stitched corners. Lid and base both formed from a flat blank with the corners stitched rather than glued. The stitches show, but they hold under load in a way glue does not, which is why this one survives in heavy industrial use.
Checked against the plate. This blank has been compared side by side with the drawing in the FEFCO Code, 12th Edition, and matches. That is a statement about the drawing, not a guarantee — always cut and fold a sample before committing to a die.
What is FEFCO 0302?
FEFCO 0302 is built from two or more pieces, most often a separate lid over a body, so the depth can vary with what is packed. Lid and base both formed from a flat blank with the corners stitched rather than glued. The stitches show, but they hold under load in a way glue does not, which is why this one survives in heavy industrial use.
Uses
- Jobs where the depth or the fit has to be adjusted after packing
- High-volume packing lines, since a pre-glued blank erects in one movement
Advantages
- Arrives glued and flat, and erects quickly by hand or by machine
- The two parts can be made from different boards, or printed differently
Disadvantages
- Needs 2 separate pieces, so there is more than one tool and more than one part to handle
- The glued joint sets the minimum order — short runs are rarely economical
Typical industries
- General packing and light manufacturing
Recommended board grades
Single wall B or C flute is usual. The lid and body are often the same board; a heavier body under a lighter lid is worth considering where only the body carries the stack.
