| CNC-Routed Corrugated Plastic Box | Polypropylene or polyethylene corrugated sheet, approximately 2–6 mm thick | Reusable logistics bins, automotive components, warehouse handling, moisture-prone shipments | CNC knife cutting, routing, slotting, and heat-assisted folding where required | Medium; resistant to moisture and repeated handling | $4.00–$15.00 | $100–$500 | 50–200 units | 10–22 working days | Evaluate hinge durability, fold-line fatigue, chemical resistance, sheet density, returnable-use cycle count, nesting design, and repairability. |
| CNC-Cut Folding Carton | Paperboard or solid bleached board, approximately 0.4–1.2 mm thick | Retail packaging, cosmetics, food supplements, small electronics | Digital knife cutting for prototypes; die cutting is usually more economical at high volume | Light; primarily provides presentation and dust protection | $0.35–$2.20 | $100–$450 for prototype tooling or cutting setup | 250–1,000 units | 10–25 working days | Confirm paperboard basis weight, caliper, fold-crack resistance, food-contact requirements where applicable, color tolerances, coating selection, and recyclability. |
| CNC-Fabricated Rigid Setup Box | Greyboard or chipboard core, approximately 1.5–3 mm, wrapped with paper, fabric, or synthetic covering | Premium presentation kits, gift packaging, product launch sets, collector items | CNC board cutting, corner notching, insert routing, and fixture-assisted assembly | Medium; rigid structure with limited impact cushioning unless inserts are added | $5.00–$22.00 | $150–$800 | 50–300 units | 15–30 working days | Assess corner alignment, lid fit, wrap adhesion, surface scuff resistance, insert tolerances, odor, batch consistency, and packaging for overseas shipment. |
| CNC-Cut Foam-Lined Box | Corrugated board, plywood, or plastic shell with EVA, polyethylene, or polyurethane foam insert | Precision instruments, medical devices, fragile components, technical kits | CNC foam routing, profile cutting, pocket machining, and box-panel cutting | High when foam density and cavity tolerances are correctly specified | $12.00–$65.00 | $200–$1,500 for CAD development, fixtures, and foam programs | 20–100 units | 15–35 working days | Request foam density, compression-set data, cavity clearance, vibration testing, drop-test evidence, material safety documentation, and replaceable insert options. |
| CNC Plywood Export Crate | Structural plywood, commonly 6–18 mm thick, with timber framing or cleats | Machinery, industrial assemblies, oversized components, export freight | CNC panel cutting, drilling, dadoing, pocketing, and assembly-jig preparation | High for stacking and handling when engineered to the payload | $45.00–$220.00 | $250–$1,500 | 5–50 units | 15–35 working days | Verify panel grade, fastener pattern, internal blocking, lifting points, moisture barriers, gross weight, forklift access, and compliance with destination-country wood-packaging rules. |
| CNC-Routed Solid-Wood Crate | Softwood or hardwood boards, commonly 12–25 mm thick, with battens and reinforced joints | Heavy equipment, robust industrial parts, domestic and international transport | CNC drilling, routing, rebate cutting, and repeatable joint preparation | High; strong resistance to impact and rough handling when properly braced | $60.00–$300.00 | $300–$2,000 | 5–30 units | 18–40 working days | Evaluate wood moisture, structural calculations, corner reinforcement, fastener corrosion resistance, internal restraint, treatment certification, and total packed weight. |
| CNC-Routed HDPE or PVC Equipment Case | HDPE, PVC, or engineering plastic sheet, approximately 5–15 mm thick, often combined with foam | Outdoor equipment, testing devices, reusable technical transport cases | CNC routing, drilling, pocketing, edge profiling, and panel joining | High; good moisture resistance and repeat-use potential | $35.00–$180.00 | $300–$2,000 | 5–50 units | 20–45 working days | Check impact strength, UV stability, chemical compatibility, hardware corrosion, gasket performance, hinge cycle life, handle load rating, and field-serviceability. |
