Calculation method
Calculation method
Flat-net bounding length (mm)
L+2*(H+foldAllowance).
Flat-net bounding width (mm)
W+2*(H+foldAllowance).
Base and wall rectangles JSON [ID,x,y,width,height] (mm)
Place base at (h,h), four rectangular walls around it, h=height+foldAllowance.
Corner glue tabs JSON [ID,x,y,width,height] (mm)
Four tabs adjacent to two end walls, each tabWidth by h; tabWidth<=h so net stays in bounding rectangle.

Assumptions & limits
Assumptions & limits
- Supported style: open-top rectangular tray with four corner glue tabs. User fold allowance summarizes their stock-caliper/creasing convention; no universal caliper compensation. Exact mathematical net, no dieline manufacturing tolerance or structural claim. Supported limits: L,W,H>0; foldAllowance>=0; 0<tabWidth<=H+foldAllowance; a prototype is required for a physical carton.
