Walls placed between the long walls are shorter by this value at each joint to prevent jamming during erection.

This template is a component of a packaging assembly. Match its dimensions to the other parts; lids, bases, wraps and linings serve different purposes.
How it is assembled
Erect the greyboard at the grooves: front and back walls first, then place the end walls between them. Secure the corners with corner tape, then wrap.
Material and grain direction
Grain direction of greyboard and wrapping paper parallel to the blank's x-axis: the long grooves fold cleanly, and board and paper do not warp against each other during lamination (check with the box manufacturer).
Test fit, folding and closure on a sample made from the intended material. Confirm material thickness, grain direction and production steps with your printer.
Compare opening and presentation: pillow shapes, bands, drawers or lift-off lids. Plan the fit of contents and inserts and allow clearance between moving parts.

What to consider for this construction
Frequently asked questions
Why is the lid larger than the base?
The lid must fit over the already wrapped base. The model adds twice the clearance and four times the paper thickness to the base outside dimensions. The greyboard lid inside dimensions therefore differ from the product space. If you change paper or greyboard, recalculate the assembly and confirm fit using a sample.
Is lid height the same as base height?
No. The base starts with an inside height of 60 mm, the lid with 30 mm. ASM-002 warns if the lid walls are taller than the base. The lid may then rest on the supporting surface. Decide how far the lid should overlap the base with the manufacturer using the wrapped sample.
Why do the wraps have their own dimensions and parameters?
Base wrap and lid wrap surround different shells. Both use the dimensions of their respective greyboard and its thickness as the boardCaliper parameter. Turn-in and corner tab change the paper contour. Do not transfer changes by simply scaling: the shell, its wall height and the wrapping paper thickness limit the possible turn-in.
