IV. Core Manufacturing Process for High-End Folding Cases (fully self-developed): 1. Design Integration – Structural engineers collaborate with graphic designers throughout the process; even the most aesthetically pleasing design becomes useless if structurally flawed. Our structural engineers are involved from the initial design phase to ensure optimal folding lines, latching mechanisms, and window positioning, achieving a seamless design solution with high assembly efficiency.
- Printing – Utilizing the Aerox closed-loop system with ΔE ≤ 1.0, employing a Heidelberg multi-color press combined with Aerox IntelliTrax scanning technology for fully automated color correction throughout the process. Brand-specific colors are accurately reproduced, ensuring no color discrepancy between bulk production and samples.
- Surface finishing – gold stamping, embossing, UV coating, and reverse matting. Equipped with proprietary gold stamping machines, film applicators, and screen printing machines, offering flexible process combinations. Gold stamping and embossing can be completed in a single step (three-dimensional stamping), ensuring high efficiency and a three-dimensional effect.
- Die-cutting – With a precision of ±0.1 mm, the fold lines are smooth when produced using a high-speed flat-pressure die-cutting machine equipped with imported steel dies, resulting in smooth edges free from burrs. The embossing depth is precisely calibrated to ensure seamless folding without cracking.
- Automatic Capping – Uniform adhesive application with robust adhesion: The fully automated capping machine features an adhesive quantity detection and waste rejection system, ensuring uniform coating without overflow, achieving adhesion strength equivalent to paper fiber tear resistance.
