The application of end mills in the Processing of Gift packaging boxes

End mills are mainly used in the processing of gift packaging boxes for complex contours, open channels and decorative structures. The following is a specific analysis:

As one of the most frequently used tools on CNC milling machines, the end mill has a cylindrical structure that can adapt to various processing requirements. In the processing of gift packaging boxes, this tool is particularly suitable for handling scenarios that require high-precision contours, such as milling the edges of irregular-shaped box bodies, engraving decorative slots and holes, or processing three-dimensional relief patterns. Its design with more than three edges ensures the stability of the cutting process. The helical edge structure can effectively reduce vibration, making it particularly suitable for processing decorative packaging materials such as acrylic, solid wood or high-density boards.

For the special requirements of gift packaging boxes, end mills can achieve the following technological breakthroughs: When processing irregular-shaped top and bottom cover boxes, by setting a 45° helix Angle in combination with a small feed rate, a mirror-like surface quality can be obtained. For book-shaped boxes with magnetic attraction structures, their rigid design can ensure the dimensional accuracy of the milled magnetic hole positions. When processing multi-layer composite material gift boxes, seamless connection between rough machining and fine machining can be achieved by adjusting the number of teeth.

In practical applications, when choosing end mills, the physical properties of packaging materials should be given priority consideration. When processing solid wood gift boxes, hard alloy cutting tools should be selected. However, when dealing with acrylic materials, the cutting depth should be controlled to not exceed 30% of the tool diameter. For scenarios with high requirements for surface decoration, it is recommended to use coated ball-end mills for surface finishing. Combined with the contour processing path, the residual height can be controlled within 0.01mm.
