corru~CAD
Free CAD & cost estimating engine for corrugated boxes.
Most packaging buyers have to guess at custom box costs. CorruCAD is a free, browser-based CAD and estimating engine that gives you the exact math. Generate standard FEFCO blanks, calculate exact material costs using specific board grades, find your waste percentage, and instantly export production-ready DXF, PDF, or Kiwiplan CSV files right from your browser.
Hi everyone, Kenneth here.
A few weeks ago, I launched BoxFinder to track retail box prices. Today, I'm launching the core physics and estimating engine behind it: CorruCAD.
If you buy, design, or sell custom corrugated packaging, getting an accurate manufacturing cost usually requires waiting days for a supplier to run the CAD and spit out a quote. I built CorruCAD to do the heavy lifting in your browser instantly.
You pick the FEFCO style, input the dimensions, and select the exact board grade (e.g., 32 ECT C-Flute). The engine dynamically draws the structural blank, calculates the waste percentage, figures the exact inches of rule needed for the die, and gives you a raw material cost based on market spot prices. From there, you can export the exact DXF file for the cutting table or a Kiwiplan CSV to route straight to production.
It's completely free to use. Let me know if you have any questions about the math or the geometry engine under the hood!
corru~CAD is an easy to use web-based calculator for FEFCO boxes. It is a lightweight alternative to industrial grade CAD software and a CPQ all in one. You can use it to design five common FEFCO styles, and download a production ready DXF or export the data to Kiwiplan. Try it today:
