FEFCO 0504 Box Template Generator
Slide box, side sleeve over end sleeve. Two sleeves crossing at right angles: an inner tube closing the top and bottom, and an outer tube wrapping the sides. Slides apart like a matchbox and needs no tape at all.
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 0504?
FEFCO 0504 is made from more than one piece, with an inner tray or frame sliding inside an outer sleeve. Two sleeves crossing at right angles: an inner tube closing the top and bottom, and an outer tube wrapping the sides. Slides apart like a matchbox and needs no tape at all.
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 E or B flute, or solid board for the smaller sizes. Both pieces are usually the same board so the slide fit stays predictable.
