Kaushal1, V.K.Sirohiya2 and R.K.Rathore3 1 2 Assistant Prof. Mechanical Engineering Department, Gwalior Institute of Information Technology,Gwalior, Assistant Prof. Mechanical Engineering 3 Departments, Gwalior Engineering College, Gwalior, M. Tech students Maharanapratap College of Technology, Gwalior, [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] ABSTRACT Corrugated board is widely used in the packing industry. The main advantages are lightness, recyclability and low cost. This makes the material the best choice to produce containers devoted to the shipping of goods. Furthermore examples of structure design based on corrugated boards can be found in different fields. Structural analysis of paperboard components is a crucial topic in the design of containers. It is required to investigate their strength properties because they have to protect the goods contained from lateral crushing and compression loads due to stacking. However in this paper complete and detailed information are presented. Keywords: - corrugated boards, recyclability, compression loads. Smaller flutes offer printability advantages as well as I. INTRODUCTION structural advantages for retail packaging. Corrugated board is essentially a paper sandwich consisting of corrugated medium layered between inside II. HISTORY and outside linerboard. On the production side, corrugated In 1856 the first known corrugated material was patented is a sub-category of the paperboard industry, which is a for sweatband lining in top hats.

  • Tensile Properties of Paper and Paperboard (Using Constant Rate of Elongation Apparatus) (Revision of T 494 Om-01)
    WI 050808.09 T 494 DRAFT NO. 2 DATE June 13, 2006 TAPPI WORKING GROUP CHAIRMAN D Muchorski SUBJECT CATEGORY Physical Properties RELATED METHODS See “Additional Information” CAUTION: This Test Method may include safety precautions which are believed to be appropriate at the time of publication of the method. The intent of these is to alert the user of the method to safety issues related to such use. The user is responsible for determining that the safety precautions are complete and are appropriate to their use of the method, and for ensuring that suitable safety practices have not changed since publication of the method. This method may require the use, disposal, or both, of chemicals which may present serious health hazards to humans. Procedures for the handling of such substances are set forth on Material Safety Data Sheets which must be developed by all manufacturers and importers of potentially hazardous chemicals and maintained by all distributors of potentially hazardous chemicals. Prior to the use of this method, the user must determine whether any of the chemicals to be used or disposed of are potentially hazardous and, if so, must follow strictly the procedures specified by both the manufacturer, as well as local, state, and federal authorities for safe use and disposal of these chemicals. Tensile properties of paper and paperboard (using constant rate of elongation apparatus) (Revision of T 494 om-01) (Underlines indicated changes/corrections since last draft) 1. Scope 1.1 This test method describes the procedure, using constant-rate-of-elongation equipment, for determining four tensile breaking properties of paper and paperboard: tensile strength, stretch, tensile energy absorption, and tensile stiffness.

  • Corrugated 101! ! !Corrugated Vs
    Corrugated 101! ! !Corrugated vs. Cardboard! • The term "cardboard box" is commonly misused when referring to a corrugated box. The correct technical term is "corrugated fiberboard carton.”! • Cardboard boxes are really chipboard boxes, and used primarily for packaging lightweight products, such as cereal or board games.! • Corrugated fiberboard boxes are widely utilized in retail packaging, shipping cartons, product displays and many other applications ! requiring lightweight, but sturdy materials.! !Corrugated Composition! Corrugated fiberboard is comprised of linerboard and heavy paper medium. Linerboard is the flat, outer surface that adheres to the medium. The medium is the wavy, fluted paper between the liners. Both are made of a special kind of heavy paper called !containerboard. Board strength will vary depending on the various linerboard and medium combinations.! • Single Face: Medium glued to 1 linerboard; flutes exposed! • Single Wall: Medium between 2 liners! • Double Wall: Varying mediums layered between 3 liners! !• Triple Wall: Varying mediums layered between 4 liners! !Flute Facts! !Corrugated board can be created with several different flute profiles. The five most common flute profiles are:! • A-Flute: Original corrugated flute design. Contains about 33 flutes per foot.! • B-Flute: Developed primarily for packaging canned goods. Contains about 47 flutes per foot and measures 1/8" thick! • C-Flute: Commonly used for shipping cartons. Contains about 39 flutes per foot and measures 5/32" thick! • E-Flute: Contains about 90 flutes per foot and measures 1/16" thick! • F-Flute: Developed for small retail packaging. Contains about 125 flutes per foot and measures 1/32" thick! • Generally, larger flute profiles deliver greater vertical compression strength and cushioning.

  • 1 Fibre Box Handbook Glossary Adhesive
    Fibre Box Handbook Glossary A Adhesive: Substance capable of adhering one surface to another. For fiberboard boxes, the substance is used to hold plies of solid fiberboard together, to hold linerboard to the tips of flutes of corrugated medium, or to hold overlapping flaps together to form the joint or to close a box. Anilox System: Inking system used in flexographic presses. B Bale: A shaped unit, usually containing compressible articles or materials, enclosed in a fiberboard container not conforming to the carriers’ rules for a box, or enclosed in other wrapping, and bound by strapping, rope or wire under tension. Banded Unit: A package or palletized load that has a band or bands (usually plastic) applied to it. Bar Code: An identification symbol. Alpha or alpha-numeric information is encoded in a sequence of high-contrast, rectangular bars and blank spaces. The relative widths of these bars and spaces and their sequence differentiate the individual characters that make up the encoded information. Bar codes are “read” by electronic scanners. Basis Weight (of Containerboard): Weight of linerboard or corrugating medium expressed in terms of pounds per 1,000 square feet (msf). Bending: In the expression "proper bending qualities," the ability of containerboard or combined board to be folded along score lines without rupture of the surface fibers to the point of seriously weakening the structure. Blank or Box Blank: A flat sheet of corrugated or solid fiberboard that has been cut, slotted and scored so that, when folded along the score lines and joined, it will take the form of a box.
