Many gift boxes are much larger than they need to be and contain filler material, resulting in wasted money. Now, a Belgium-based firm has designed a machine that uses laser cutters to create the perfectly sized box to ship their gift in from flat pieces of cardboard. Called Slimbox, users measure their product, select the type of box and enter the dimensions using an accompanied app and a foldable template prints out in seconds. “Slimbox cuts the cardboard into the shape of your choice and automatically decides the exact cutting speed and preferred quality to guarantee a perfect result,” reads the Slimbox website. To design the perfect sized box, users take measurements of the product using an included scale and input the dimensions with what type of box you want to use into the free accompanied app. In seconds, a tailored box will be sent out of the machine, the template on the box is created by laser cutters. All you have to do is fold the box following the design and send the package.(SD-Agencies) |
