FEFCO 0309 Box Template Generator
Telescope box, outfolded corners. Both pieces have full-square corners creased to fold outward, so the webs sit on the outside and the inside faces stay smooth. Used where the contents must not catch on a folded corner.
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 0309?
FEFCO 0309 is built from two or more pieces, most often a separate lid over a body, so the depth can vary with what is packed. Both pieces have full-square corners creased to fold outward, so the webs sit on the outside and the inside faces stay smooth. Used where the contents must not catch on a folded corner.
Uses
- Jobs where the depth or the fit has to be adjusted after packing
Advantages
- 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
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.
