I. The “disaster on the ground” behind the “visual wow factor” In the era of packaging is marketing, brands want to get a “shaped bottle” as a super symbol. But the reality is very bone-skinny: many design companies give the draft, the bottle R angle is too small, resulting in stress concentration, not enough slant of the mold can not lead to automatic production, wall thickness is not uniform, resulting in the filling of the bottle.
Over the past 15 years, Meilin Design has seen too many brands come to us with “airplane drafts” designed by amateurs.A design that can't be landed is the biggest waste of cost for the brand.
Second, shaped bottle customization of the “three deadly pit”, you stepped on a few?
- “Self-explosion traps due to ”stress concentration"The corners of the shaped bottles, if not handled properly, will generate huge internal stresses during the annealing process. By means of 3D simulation, the potential for cracking of the 95% was eliminated at the design stage.
- “Invisible losses due to ”uncontrolled grams"Bottles with irrational design can only blindly increase the weight of material for the sake of strength. We have helped a head of beverage customers, without changing the visual volume of the premise, through the structure optimization weight reduction 12%, single bottle cost savings of 0.1 yuan, annual savings of millions.
- “Mold to Mold” bullshit hell.Design doesn't care about production, the mold factory changes the bad draft. Meilin insists on “design is engineering”, our drawings are directly connected to the production line, so that your product on-line cycle is shortened by 30%.
The “pit-avoidance philosophy” of Meilin Design: Design as Mold Why can Meilin take on shaped and difficult molds that others are afraid to take on? Because we have 15 years of “bottle mold laboratory”. Every curvature, every parting surface is deduced based on millions of mold production experience.
Write at the end: A good bottle should be the pinnacle of brand vision and a green light for supply chain production.
