Parameters of this construction
1 parameters with default value and limits, adjustable in the editor.
| Parameter | Default | Range | Note |
|---|---|---|---|
Circumference easebandEase | 0 mm | 0–10 mm | Additional length so the wrap band fits loosely or can be slipped off. |
Assembly
Apply adhesive to the glue area at the beginning, wrap the band around the body, and glue the end over it.
Grain direction
Grain direction parallel to the band height, across the circumference (check)

Frequently asked questions about this template
What does the circumference ease allowance do?
It adds length outside the glue overlap. Within the 0–10 mm range, it lets you plan a looser fit; the starting value of 0 fits the specified circumference. Whether the band can actually be slipped off depends on the body, material, and gluing and must be checked using a sample.
How is the wrap band length calculated?
Length is circumference plus ease allowance plus overlap. The starting example gives 300 + 0 + 10 = 310 mm. Band width is 40 mm. Bleed and safety zone are additionally taken from the production profile and do not change this dimension reference.
Does the wrap band have creases for a rectangular box?
No. band.wrap is an uncreased strip. The belly band is intended for the four walls of a box with defined creases and a glue flap. It accounts for the length and width of the box cross section and material thickness.
Can I use diameter instead of circumference?
Yes, for a round body the dimension model accepts a diameter. Circumference is calculated from it. If you specify both dimensions, they must agree within 0.1 mm. For a stack or a nonround body, the measured circumference is the appropriate input.
