Case Types
| Case Types | |
| The most common box used in packaging is the Regular Slotted Case (RSC), the most cost effective style of case. When there is a need for precise dimensions or special features such as cut outs or perforations Die-Cut boxes of similar structure are used. Below are examples of the case types our case erectors can handle: |
|
| All Flaps Meet (AFM) |
This box has two major flaps meeting in the center when folded, and two extended minor flaps at each end, also meeting in the center when folded. This provides a full overlap of the major flaps over the minor flaps, creating a strong box with a nearly smooth bottom |
| Half Slotted Case (HSC) |
The HSC is essentially an RSC without top flaps. This style, when combined with a lid provides a shipping case that, with the lid removed becomes a shelf storage or display unit, for instance used for reams of paper or in the fruit and vegetable industry. |
| Half Slotted Case (HSC) with Display | |
This style of HSC has one or more cut outs or perforations that enable the user to remove a portion of the body of the box for display purposes. |
| Five Panel RSC or HSC with or without Display |
This style of case has an extra panel that is glued on the inside, either lengthwise or widthwise, creating a divider and a very strong vertical support in the center of the case. |
| RSC bottom with top folding flaps | |
The bottom flaps ar folded and closed on our standard case erectors but the top flaps are folded and locked manually. This provides a box that can be re-closed and stored neatly in home, store and warehouse applications; for instance for hardware products. |
