FEFCO 0509 Box Template Generator
End sleeve over a butt-seam liner. A glued end sleeve sliding over a five-panel liner whose two half-panels butt together in the middle of a face. The sleeve is what holds the liner closed, so the liner needs no glue at all.
Not yet plate-checked. This template folds, closes and exports cleanly, but its blank has not yet been matched against the standard's own drawing in detail. Treat it as a starting point and check it before you spend anything.
What is FEFCO 0509?
FEFCO 0509 is made from more than one piece, with an inner tray or frame sliding inside an outer sleeve. A glued end sleeve sliding over a five-panel liner whose two half-panels butt together in the middle of a face. The sleeve is what holds the liner closed, so the liner needs no glue at all.
Uses
- Protecting or separating goods inside a larger case
- 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
- Cut from offcuts or lighter board than the outer case, so it adds little cost
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 E or B flute, or solid board for the smaller sizes. Both pieces are usually the same board so the slide fit stays predictable.
