32ECT Corrugated Light Panel Design
Budget: $10 – $30 USD
I need a fresh enclosure concept for our existing panel lights, this time built entirely from 32 ECT corrugated cardboard. The goal is to boost durability, so the design must hold up better than our current version while still protecting the light components.
Please reference the photo set here: https://photos.app.goo.gl/trf8UhWdsbAhwGLc9. The external shape and overall dimensions you see in those images should remain unchanged; they already fit neatly into our manufacturing and shipping workflow. What the new version must introduce is stronger structural support—think clever fluting orientation, internal ribs, locking tabs, or any other cardboard-friendly engineering that ramps up stiffness without adding extra material thickness.
Key points you should cover
• Use 32 ECT corrugated cardboard only
• Preserve the existing footprint and profile
• Integrate better load-bearing or shock-absorbing features
• Keep the solution simple enough for die-cutting and quick folding on our current equipment
Deliverables
1. Production-ready CAD drawings (DXF or AI for die lines plus 3D views)
2. Brief assembly guide with callouts for glue points or locking mechanisms
3. One round of revisions after initial review
I’ll test your files on our prototype cutter, so accuracy is crucial. Feel free to propose multiple strengthening concepts if you have them; I can evaluate them side by side.
