Requirements of a real-life example

• A packaging solution that can be implemented quickly
• Storage of a large quantity of shafts
• Cushioning, as the production site is to be relocated
• Storage of the shafts in the available lattice boxes
• The packaging must protect against dust, dirt and corrosion
• The packaging must be stable and easy to assemble

Solution found for the example

• Large load carrier (lattice box)
• PE bags to protect against dust and dirt, moisture and corrosion
• PROPYwell dividers with optimal load factor
• Intermediate layers
• VCI paper as corrosion protection

Advantages of the solution

• Thanks to the use of PROPYwell plug-in dividers to hold the shafts, direct contact between the fibrous material and the corrosion-sensitive shaft is avoided 
• The plug-in divider guarantees that the lattice box is filled to full capacity
• The dividers can be manufactured at a low tooling cost and can be supplied quickly
• The dividers are printed with serial numbers in order to assign the individual parts to the packaging
• Stable intermediate layers from PROPYboard are used to separate the individual layers
• VCI paper is placed on the intermediate layers. The active ingredient can spread through the divider to cover the entire item
