About program...

The "TLKarton" was created for companies, which deal with the design and/or production of packagings.

Depending on the purchased package, program may contain a list of standard packaging made of corrugated cardboard and/or packaging made of cardboard (e.g. coated paper). Designing corrugated packagings You can choose one of the 6 types of material:

• - F flute (3-layer cardboard of a thickness 0.8-1mm)
• - E flute(3-layer cardboard of a thickness 1.2-2mm)
• - B flute (3-layer cardboard of a thickness 2.4-3mm)
• - C flute (3-layer cardboard of a thickness ok. 4mm)
• - EB flute (5-layer cardboard of a thickness ok. 5mm - combined E and B flute)
• - BC flute (5-layer cardboard of a thickness ok. 7mm - combined B and C flute)

When designing the packaging of cardboard You can select any material thickness with an accuracy of 2 decimal places. However, most often thickness is set to not less than 0.5mm. The thickness is best enter with an accuracy of 1 decimal place.

Warning! Before transferring the designed packaging to produce, it is recommended making a prototype and put the content in the packaging! Cardboards have a different basis weight and it may happen that, in practice, the product does not fit the packaging. Considerable attention should also be paid to the packagings of 2-point glued bottom "automatic" (as FEFCO 07xx). Incorrect setting of angles the bottom tabs may cause the packaging will not fold.

If You have purchased a package of creating the layout (arrangement of samples on the sheet) after generating of the sample you can spread more samples on the sheet. The dimension of the sheet is selected from the standard A0-A4 and B0-B4, or give any other custom size. It is possible to calculate the approximate price of the die, which is needed for cutting designed sheet. Native file format for "TLKarton" are .tlkart files. Their size is usually a few kilobytes.
