Parts bin organizer

thingiverse

This parameterized Solidworks file is designed for creating a custom parts bin organizer from various materials such as cardboard, matte board, or other suitable materials. By entering desired dimensions like length, width, and height, users can generate a DXF file specifically for use in laser cutting. Three sample DXF files are included for different sizes of cardboard boxes. To use the Solidworks file, simply update variables with measurements for length, width, and height through the equation editor. Additionally, enter material thickness into base flange properties, then flatten the part and create a DXF file for your laser cutter. Some laser cutters may have size limits like 18x32 inches; the provided Solidworks file accommodates boxes of specific dimensions, such as: 7"(L) x 5"(W) x 3.5"(H), 6.5"(L) x 5"(W) x 5"(H), and 9.25"(L) x 8.5"(W) x 3.5"(H). Note that there is no error checking for the minimum width of 2.25" or depth of 4". The generated parts and DXF files include small dots marking fold lines for accurate assembly. To assemble, cut box sides with corrugation running vertically; when folding the back tab into its corresponding slot, try to get as close as possible to marked guidelines to ensure a smooth fit.
