How to use ArtiosCAD for packaging carton design

How to use ArtiosCAD for packaging carton design Ye Haijing With the rapid development of modern computer technology, packaging auxiliary design technology is widely used in the modern packaging industry, and play an increasingly important role. In the packaging industry, packaging CAD design technology is mainly reflected in structural design, shape design, and decoration design, as well as mechanical design and transportation packaging. The packaging industry fields involved are becoming wider and wider. Paper packaging containers are currently the most commonly used packaging containers in the packaging industry. In the daily design process, we generally can only complete two-dimensional production, that is, we can only achieve two-dimensional effects and cannot achieve three-dimensional effects. There is no way to detect the molding effect. Therefore, designed products often need to be inspected through hand-made box samples. This is a waste of materials. After we complete the design, we can see the three-dimensional molding renderings and test them before the box samples are released, which will save costs and time at the same time. Many modern packaging design practitioners, especially packaging structure designers, use ArtiosCAD design software developed by Esko. ArtiosCAD is a popular computer-aided packaging design software with special tools designed specifically for packaging structure design. It is suitable for structural design, product development, virtual prototyping and manufacturing, and can greatly improve production efficiency. ArtiosCAD provides structural designers with a tool for conceptual design and product development, allowing users to construct three-dimensional packaging models on the screen. It is an ideal structural design software. Two structural design methods are provided: manually drawing the structural diagram and calling the box library. When running one of the commands, a dialog box will appear, requiring you to select the material (corrugated, cardboard) used in the design, the dimensioning unit, and the type of material. The author will take the tubular folding carton as an example for analysis.

1. Manual drawing of structural drawings requires packaging designers to have extensive practical experience in the software and packaging box structure. With the help of relevant design tools of the software, such as Conlines (auxiliary line tools), Geometry (geometric model tools), Adjust (editing tools), Edit (editing tools), etc., combined with the calculation formula for the size of tubular folding cartons, designers can quickly Complete the drawing of the structure diagram. In addition, the designer can create a base material, which also wastes time. In addition, traditional manual design cannot meet the style needs of the box. Therefore, if a design is a carton structure design, this software can provide the packaging designer with a mension (dimension layer) and draw the size, so that it can detect whether the drawn structure diagram 62 Packaging and Decoration Wanfang Data PRlNTINGFIELD2007.11N0.260 When changes occur, you can also use this tool to make modifications, which will greatly save production time and improve efficiency. Figure 2 is an operation diagram of extending the body plate width by 25mm. 1. Structural box type selection prompt box to observe whether each surface meets the requirements, and then proceed to the next step of design operation. 2. Import the decoration renderings. After obtaining the renderings (EPSF, BMP or other formats), import them into the structure drawing through the import file (ImportFlie) command in the CAD software, and place them in the appropriate position as required. Use the 3D mode in ArtiosCAD software to obtain three-dimensional modeling renderings through folding, rotation, etc. In this way, you can detect whether the layout control during printing coincides with the structural drawing, and determine whether post-processing such as die-cutting can achieve the design effect (as shown in Figure 3). Make a schematic diagram. ,,;,"巴≮>蔔;◇螓{》≮,'#il,《器*Cancer:≮: meets the requirements. 2. Call the box library. The box library is a box library that comes with the software itself. It basically includes all structural box types of folding cartons (ECMA) and corrugated boxes (FEFCO), and can be updated in time, providing designers with a quick and convenient platform. As shown in Figure 1, complete the dimensions according to the corresponding prompt box. and the input of local dimensions, you can directly complete the import of the structure diagram. After completing the drawing of the structure diagram through the above two methods, if you find that the local dimensions are incorrect, or you need to change the partial dimensions, you can use the Adjust tool. ) to make local increases or decreases. For the same box structure but with the same size, 2. Carton shape design 1. 3D molding ArtiosCAD software has a 3D molding function, and 3D can transform the graphic design made by the designer into Three-dimensional space folding can predict whether the design is feasible in the real world before production starts, thereby avoiding the waste of time and materials. For designers, the three-dimensional molding diagram can be seen through simulation, and the design structure diagram can be directly used. (two-dimensional) into a three-dimensional rendering (three-dimensional) to check whether the structural dimensions of the box meet the requirements. During the molding process, you can control the angle of folding through the mouse, or you can directly input the molding angle. Even if all the folding angles are the same, it can also be molded in one go. After molding, you can draw a 3D molding three-dimensional rendering. 3. Other functions 1. The layout is based on the needs of post-printing processing and die-cutting, after completing the structural design and three-dimensional molding. , generally \335 needs to make corresponding post-processing sizes. The actual function of the layout is to make die-cut plates, and arrange the layout on the same layout according to the requirements of printing equipment, printing technology, cost saving and other aspects. One or more box types are determined according to the specific situation. "Figure 2 uses telescopic tools to make partial modifications 2. Making intelligent base plates. The base plate is a special template made of phenolic resin and is used for folding carton packaging and decoration. Fang Data Li Yang's Analysis of the Application of Traditional Culture in Packaging Design Packaging design is a very distinctive form of expression in modern social culture. It is not only a part of traditional culture, but also the material carrier of culture. Tradition refers to the ideas and thoughts passed down through history. Culture, morality, style, art, system and behavior, etc., and national culture is an important part of traditional culture. The stronger the local color and national characteristics, the easier it is to attract people. , this concept has gradually become the common sense in the era of world economic integration. Modern packaging design applications have national characteristics and can gain more attention and recognition from the world.

When it comes to the traditional expressions of our nation, what everyone thinks of may be limited to adding graphic elements such as folk paper-cutting, facial makeup, shadow puppets, and auspicious clouds to the packaging, resulting in a trend of traditional style packaging in the market being the same. In fact, traditional culture can be expressed in many aspects. This article mainly discusses it from the following aspects. 1. The aesthetic needs of the application of traditional culture in packaging modeling structure. For example, the packaging image is made by imitating the physical structures of bronzes, clay pottery, terracotta warriors and horses, as well as folk gourds, dragon lanterns, and wooden barrels. Not only does the appearance of the image have inheritance, but it also contains national cultural meaning and shows the Chinese flavor. 2. Application of traditional decoration in packaging Traditional decoration has a long history and brilliant achievements in China. As early as thousands of years ago on the painted pottery of the Neolithic Age, ancestors began to use patterns to decorate their lives and use decorative language to express their pursuit and yearning for beauty. As a symbol with a specific conceptual meaning, it has a wide range of themes, rich content, diverse forms, and has been circulated for a long time. It is closely related to the people's concepts in physical structure. In the process of being passed around, some ancient cultural relics gradually became a kind of symbol. Material things with typical demonstration significance play the role of inheriting certain cultural symbols. This is a transformation process of folk culture in design, which directly affects people's production. It is part of the die-cutting tool and is placed between the folded cardboard stock and the bottom of the die-cutting machine. It is very helpful in making creases. For most designs, ArtioscAD's smart baseplate is automatically created with just a few button presses. 3. Make animations to form a folding process by controlling the folding angle and the number of folds, or complete the filling of items according to the running trajectory. For example, completing the process of taking cigarettes out of the box, using them, and burning them, as well as completing other operations based on specific conditions, are all animation designs. 4. Quickly produce box samples. ArtiosCAD box design software can also output box samples and directly connect to box cutting machines (such as KongsbergxL20). The rapid development of packaging CAD design software will provide a great opportunity for the modern packaging industry, especially packaging design. Provide a better platform for the development of the field. At present, the high version of ArtiosCAD design software has updated the types of materials, which are no longer limited to paper packaging materials, but have expanded to other materials such as plastics. ※Carry out box-shaped cutting. After checking the color molding renderings, if you need to make a model and submit it to the customer, or perform small batch production (for example, less than 100 pieces), the operation can be completed directly by the box-type cutting machine, which brings great convenience to proofing.

Dissertation Zhao Yucong Parameterization of Packaging Carton Structure and Implementation of CAD System 2007 Packaging cartons are a popular sales packaging container. Due to their wide variety and complex structure, there is currently no national standard. As the automation of carton packaging production puts higher and higher requirements on the quality and degree of cartons, in-depth research on the parameterization of carton structures in theory and practice can establish a correct mathematical model for the development of carton CAD/CAM systems. Provide scientific basis to greatly improve the quality and efficiency of carton design. This article uses existing CAD design software as a platform, uses intelligent structural features to carry out parametric design of cartons, and corrects the size and angle of special-shaped boxes. A carton CAD software system that can realize two-dimensional flat expansion and three-dimensional display of commonly used cartons has been developed to improve the standardization of carton structures in preparation for subsequent carton processing. In the project, the DXF file format is used to develop the packaging carton structure. The final file storage format of the drawing provides convenience for subsequent processes (plate making using laser cutting machines, etc.). The project uses the established parametric model and uses VC++ language to develop a corresponding intelligent CAD system for paper boxes. This system adopts the functional component method by establishing a functional component library to realize the parametric structural design of commonly used paper boxes; only You only need to enter the basic parameters of the carton (length, width, height and paper thickness), and the design can be automatically completed. It can realize visualization by drawing basic graphics, and can also perform attribute modification and editing management. It can exchange data with other CAD systems in DXF file format as a standard.

The article also analyzes the various factors that affect the structural size of the carton, focuses on the establishment of a mathematical model for the parameterization of the special-shaped box structure, solves the design and calculation of the relevant structural dimensions of some special-shaped boxes, and provides a correct mathematical model for the realization of its parametric design. scientific basis. The work done in this article will play a positive role in standardizing the structural dimensions of cartons and promoting the standardization of packaging cartons.

Repost how to use PS to make a carton template (detailed process required)

Use PS to make a carton template:

First draw a three-dimensional shape of the carton as the basic template,< /p>

Then open the made flat carton design, use the rectangle tool to select the selection that needs to be changed, copy the background layer, drag it into the substrate template file, and click Edit->Transform-> on the toolbar After twisting and adjusting,

the other sides of the carton are processed in the same way. Use a new layer to draw the handles and openings with the pen tool, and you're done.

Pay attention to the layering. Once you create it, you can use it as a template later.
