- All partitions are custom made without die
charges to our customers.
- Partitions are sets of fiberboard or
corrugated strips which are cut, slotted and assembled to form a number of cells.
- The number of cells equals the arrangement: 4
x 3: 12 cells, 10 x 5: 50 cells.
- The cell size is measured from the center of
one slot to the center of the next slot.
- The cell size for a fiberboard partition is
the part size plus 1/16" (length + width)
The cell size for a corrugated partition is the part size plus 3/16" (length +
width)
The cell size height typically equals the height of the part being packaged.
- Air cells are end cells which do not hold
product. They are usually smaller than the cell size and used primarily to form a
protective cushion between the inner wall of a carton and the part being packaged.
- Air cells can also be used to take up space
between a cell and a stock box or a carton in current use.
- Below is a diagram of a partition strip with
air cells
- Strip length equals cell size multiplied by
arrangement plus air cells
- The strip length is typically 1/8" less
than the carton box
