Corrugated Terms
Corrugated Box or Case
A box made from multilayered, corrugated paper material, as opposed to a single-layered chipboard. Corrugated cases are manufactured in a "knockdown" or flattened configuration and must be erected before they can be used. Corrugated cases intended for automated erecting are typically manufactured to closer tolerances than those intended to be set up by hand.
Corrugated Blank
A single sheet of corrugated material manufactured for use in Trayformers and some other types of case-forming machinery. These blanks are manufactured in a configuration which allows the forming process to convert them into the desired finished products. (See Automatic Trayformers in the machinery section)
Hand of Case
Corrugated cases or "Knockdowns" are manufactured in two configurations left and right hand. Hand of case is important when using automatic case erectors.To determine the hand of case hold knockdown case so that printing is readable. Location of length panel will determine hand of case.
Knockdown
The flattened or collapsed configuration in which corrugated cases are received from the corrugated manufacture. (See Corrugated Box)
Major Flaps
The two larger flaps on the top and bottom of the case, which, when folded comprise part of the top and bottom surface of the case. Please note that some type of cases (see Case Styles) may have only one set of major flaps.
Minor Flaps
The two smaller flaps on the top and bottom of the case, which, when folded comprise part of the top and bottom surface of the case. Please note that some types of cases (see Case Styles) may only have one set of minor flaps.
