Wine boxes are made of a variety of materials, mainly paper, wood, leather and metal. We mainly talk about paper wine boxes, whose design and use play an important role in the marketing and consumer experience of wine products. So what is its production process? The following is a detailed introduction to the production process of wine boxes:
Design
Determine the design style: According to factors such as the brand positioning of the wine, the target audience and the product characteristics, determine the overall style of the wine box, such as classical, modern, simple, luxurious, etc., so that the wine box can accurately convey the brand image and product value
Drawing the design draft: The designer uses professional design software or hand-drawing to draw the plane expansion diagram and three-dimensional rendering of the wine box, and clarify the patterns, texts, color matching and box structure of each surface. The design draft should fully consider the feasibility of printing and production technology to ensure that the final effect can be perfectly presented
Material preparation
Choose suitable materials: According to the design requirements and budget of the wine box, choose the corresponding production materials. Common materials include paper, wood, leather, metal, etc. For example, paper wine boxes can be made of white cardboard, gray cardboard, corrugated paper, etc.; wooden wine boxes can be made of solid wood such as mahogany, oak, pine, or plywood, density board, etc.; leather wine boxes generally use artificial leather such as PU and PVC
Inspect material quality: conduct quality inspection on the purchased materials, check whether the specifications, thickness, hardness, color, etc. of the materials meet the requirements, eliminate materials with defects, deformation or non-standard materials, ensure the stability of material quality, and ensure the quality of the wine boxes.
Printing processing
Prepress processing: pre-press the designed electronic files, including color mode conversion, image resolution adjustment, text conversion, etc., to ensure the accuracy of the printing effect. At the same time, make printing plates, such as offset printing plates, silk screen printing plates, etc., and carry out corresponding plate making work according to different printing processes and requirements.
Printing: According to the design and quantity of the wine box, choose the appropriate printing method, such as offset printing, silk screen printing, digital printing, etc. Offset printing is suitable for large-scale, high-quality color printing; silk screen printing can achieve special effects and three-dimensional touch; digital printing is suitable for small-scale, personalized customization needs. During the printing process, the color, registration accuracy and printing quality must be strictly controlled to ensure that the pattern is clear, colorful and rich in layers.
Post-printing processing: After printing, various post-printing processing techniques are carried out according to design needs, such as hot stamping, hot silvering, embossing, UV glazing, laminating, etc., to enhance the visual effect and texture of the wine box. Hot stamping and hot silvering can make the pattern text present a metallic luster and improve the grade; embossing can increase the texture and touch of the surface; UV glazing and laminating can protect the printed surface and improve wear resistance and gloss.
Cutting and forming
Cutting: For paper wine boxes, use cutting equipment to accurately cut the printed paper according to the design size to obtain the various panels of the wine box. For wooden wine boxes, the board needs to be cut according to the required size. Tools such as electric saws and plate cutters can be used to ensure that the cutting size is accurate and the edges are flat and smooth.
Die cutting and creasing: For some wine boxes with special shapes or that need to be folded, die cutting and creasing are also required. Die cutting is to cut paper or board into specific shapes, such as circles, arcs, etc., by using a die cutter; creasing is to use a creasing knife to press creases on paper or board to facilitate subsequent folding and assembly, so that the wine box is more accurate and beautiful.
Assembly and fixation
Assembly: Assemble the cut parts according to the design requirements. For paper wine boxes, glue is generally used to paste the panels together accurately to form a complete wine box structure. Wooden wine boxes are often fixed and assembled with white latex, nails, screws, etc. to ensure a firm structure.
Quality inspection: During the assembly process, the wine box should be inspected for quality to check whether the assembly is firm and flat, whether there are problems such as debonding, cracks, deformation, etc., to promptly discover and deal with unqualified products to ensure the overall quality of the wine box.
Decoration and accessories installation
Decoration: According to the design style and brand requirements of the wine box, some additional decorative treatments can be performed, such as affixing brand labels, tying ribbons, inlaying ornaments, etc., to further enhance the beauty and uniqueness of the wine box.
Accessory installation: Some wine boxes also need to install some accessories, such as hinges, locks, handles, etc., to enhance the functionality and convenience of the wine boxes. When installing accessories, ensure that they are accurately positioned, firmly installed, and can be used normally.
In summary, it is very important to choose a good machine. Our automatic wine box making machine is easy to operate, highly automated, and has high positioning accuracy. It adopts a drying unit insulation and energy-saving design to ensure stable and consistent production capacity. The feeder has a high paper loading height to reduce the number of shutdowns and paper feeding. The machine has a scratch-proof paper design, and the conveyor belt prevents glue residue. It is an ideal equipment for wine box production.
