 Boxes

Box Length:

No limit

Box width, RSC:

Minimum:   none;
Maximum:  44” / 1117mm 

(with 22”/560mm knives.  Different knife lengths are available, producing either wider or deeper boxes.  See knife lengths below, under mechanical.
For RSC, max box width = 2x slot length;
for FOL,  max box width = 1x slot length.)

 Box depth:

Minimum, 3” / 76 mm  *
Maximum:
-054, Max box depth 18” / 0.46m
-078, Max box depth 42” / 1.1m
-102, Max box depth 66” / 1.6m
-126, Max box depth 90” / 2.3m
(the above is for machines equipped with 18”/460mm knives, producing an 18" slot, which yields a max 36" wide RSC, or a max 18" wide FOL.  NOTE:  
Longer knives = wider boxes, with less max depth;
Shorter knives = deeper boxes, with less max width;
Max box depth = max blank width – 2x knife length.)
