Flanged Box with Corner Tabs
When making an outside flanged box with corner tabs and without
using separate end pieces, it is important to form the folds in the
correct sequence.
1. Prepare the blank with corner tabs arranged as shown.
2. At one end of the full-length clampbar, form all tab folds "A" to
90. It is best to do this by inserting the tab under the clampbar.
3. At the same end of the full-length clampbar, form folds "B" to 45°
only. Do this by inserting the side of the box, rather than the
bottom of the box, under the clampbar.
4. At the other end of the full -length clampbar, form the flange folds
"C" to 90°.
5. Using appropriate short clampbars, complete folds "B" to 90.
6. Join the corners.
Remember that for deep boxes it may be better to make the box with
separate end pieces.
