COLLECTING MONEY FOR CHARITIES
REVISION TIPS – TRY TO FOCUS ON THE INFORMATION WHICH IS RELEVANT TO THE COLLECTING MONEY FOR CHARITIES THEME!
REVISE IN A QUIET AREA AND MAKE SURE YOU RE-READ ANY AREAS WHICH YOU ARE UNSURE ABOUT

WHAT DO THESE CHARITY BOXES HAVE IN COMMON?
PRODUCT ANALYSIS – dissect the products
Easy to assemble, carry
Easy to insert money,store money.
Made out of card, plastic(PVC – Polyvinyl chloride)
High quality graphics printedonto card using offset
Lithography.
Graphics protected with Varnish/spot varnishing.
Easy to read font, silhouette ofan image used without the use
of too much detail.
Bright, contrasting coloursUsed.
Small ‘cut-ins’ allow the top flap to fold over easily.
Flaps push
against the top
to give a better
grip, as the
tongue presses harder against front of
box.
One glue tab only: this reduces cost and speeds up assembly. The width of the glue tab should only be a few mm less than the side.
Tongue to hold the lid down.
The dashed lines are fold lines.
Example of a surface development (net)
Surface developments
An example of a simple locking mechanism.
Self-locking boxes
A complete self-locking box. These can be used for packaging heavier objects.
Crash bottom and interlocking containers.
Industry aims to reduce waste and keep costs low. Most high-speed production lines cut out the nets using a process called ‘die cutting’. This is computer-aided manufacture (CAM).
To do this, each net is positioned to fit as closely as possible to the next. There is just a small gap to allow for the width of the cutting blades. This process is called tessellation.
Less wasted card reduces the environmental impact and keeps raw material costs to the bare minimum.
Die cutting is similar to high- tech pastry cutting. Blades are arranged to cut the
outline and as they are pressed down, other, less sharp blades will either lightly score or compress
the fibres on the fold lines. In this way, the outline is cut through completely and the folds are scored for easy assembly.
TESSALATION AND DIE CUTTING
Finishes
Foil blocking works by stamping pre-gluedmetallic foil onto the printed surface by heat
and pressure. It is used on cards and expensivePackaging.
Holographic – printing produces a pattern that,Although flat, appears to have three dimensions.
Layers of metallic foil are used to achieve this effect.

INDUSTRIAL PROCESS
Common use Advantages Disadvantages How it works?
Offset lithography
NewspapersMagazines
Books
High quality finishMost common method used
in mass productionFast
Expensive to set up Consists of 4 printing plates (CMYK)
Each plate transfers the image onto paper
The image needs to pass through all four plates before image is
transferred onto paper
Vacuum Forming Trays , casing and containers Protects product inside of
the packaging.Expensive to set up Sheets of thermoplastics are
heated and shaped over a mould
Foil blocking Christmas cardsExpensive packaging
Makes packaging more visually appealing
Expensive Pre- glued metallic foil is stamped onto paper and card by using
heat and pressure.
Embossing Expensive packaging Makes brands and logos more visually appealing on
packaging
Expensive to set up Raises part of the card surface by applying five tonnes of pressure to a steel dye or stamp onto the
surface.
Die cutting To cut accurate 2D nets
Can cut thousands of 2D net accurately.Very fast
Serrated blades on the dye cutter are
expensive to make so only use when mass producing a 2D net
Rounded edges or serrated edges forms the outside of the die which and is stamped into a
press forme base which is made out of plywood.
Laminating Menus Strengthens paper or cardImproves appearance
Produces a wipe of surface
Plastic can over heat on the steel rollers
and can effect production
The process involves heat sealing a thin layer of plastic to the printed surface using heat
and pressure from big steel rollers.
Varnishing CD coversMagazine covers
Book covers
Protects the colour applied on the paper/ gives paper a matt, satin or gloss finish.
Can dry slowly onto paper if UV light not
applied
Varnish is sprayed onto a printed surface and then it is passed
under a UV light which dries the varnish immediately.
Blow mouldingMilk bottles, Easter
egg casingKeeps food products fresh
and protected.Expensive to set up
Plastic is blown onto the sides of a mould to form a shape.
Conformite Europeene CE Symbol – Tells you that the product meets the minimum requirements from the EU directive to be allowed to be put on display.

Homework task 1
Generate 6 creative, different design ideas for collecting money for charities. The charity will be your own choice (LOROS, Age Concern, NSPCC …).
The drawings need to be pictorial (3-D) . You must add graphics (logo, imagery etc.). The designs ideas must be presented in colour and must be shaded and outlined.
Through labelling and annotations you must explain the concept behind each one of your ideas and write what material and techniques will be used to create them.
Homework task 2
Draw nets (developments) for the 3 – d shapes below.
The nets are for collecting money for charities therefore you must take that into consideration and allow for an opening big enough to fit money through (notes and coins).
In addition to the above you must consider how the charities will empty the containers.
Glue tabs must be added, cutting and scoring lines must be identified.
Accuracy of measuring is essential.
