Embossing finish can be very vivid and real.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<div>I have a couple of technical questions about the 3D-emboss.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<p><strong>1. As you see in the sketch I have made 2 x 3D-files and I wonder how high\/low the emboss can be on the lid of the<a href=\"\/rigid-box-lift-off-lid.php\"> lift-off lid rigid box<\/a>? <\/strong><strong>Is 2-3 mm possible?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The embossing is usually 1-2mm. The 2D graphic PDF file would be ok.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2. Also, I have the 3D-files in the 3DS format, is this ok for your CNC-machine to develop the dies?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Then the technician will adjust the machine to develop the dies.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3. We mainly work with environmentally friendly paper. Would it be ok to use 118gsm <\/strong><strong style=\"font-size: 1rem;\">EGF \u2013 Evergreen 50\/50 \u2013 Balanced White as wrapping paper? It\u2019s made from 50% <\/strong><strong style=\"font-size: 1rem;\">bamboo\/50% recycled paper.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"\/solid-bleached-board-for-paper-box.php\">SBS C1S paperboard<\/a> will be used as the wrapping paper, because it is 100% virgin pulp. It has the finest printing quality.<\/p>\n<p><strong>4. The emboss we\u2019re looking for is not a usual 2D emboss but a 3D\/multilevel emboss. I attach an image of the 3D file I have and also an example of what a multi-level emboss look like. Can you do such a thing?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I understand what you mean. The machine will be adjusted manually by the technician to create the vivid 3D effect. The machine just can not read the 3d fille.<\/p>\n<p><strong>5. I understand, but do you think we can get all the details of structure and textures that are in the 3D file? <span style=\"font-size: 1rem;\">It\u2019s a very different kind of graphic than the bag you\u2019re currently working on. <\/span><\/strong><strong>Yes maybe we should make a try as you suggest, how quickly could you do a test you think?<\/strong><\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 1rem;\">We can not reproduce all the details of structure and textures that are in the 3D file. I guess your requirement for the embossing is very high. I am just afraid that we can not meet your standard.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Besides the embossing, you can also use the spot UV on the<a href=\"\/index.php\"> custom paper box<\/a>, which can create a 3D effect too. On the matte black surface, you have a <a href=\"\/varnishing-for-printed-box.php\">black spot UV<\/a> for the image. You will get a great visual effect.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\n<p><strong>6. Yes, the details are important for this gift paper box as it\u2019s so simple and the 3D emboss is the only feature on it. And you cannot outsource the production of a 3D-die? But maybe it won\u2019t fit your other machines? I guess this emboss need both a positive and negative die. <\/strong><strong>Yes, I\u2019ve used UV varnish in the past but it won\u2019t work for this I\u2019m afraid.<\/strong><\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1239\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1239\" style=\"width: 625px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1239 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.deprintedbox.com\/dewebp\/rigid-box-with-debossing-and-embossing-1024x571.webp\" alt=\"3D embossing effect on the white rigid paper box\" width=\"625\" height=\"349\"><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1239\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The real 3D embossing effect on the lift off lid rigid paper box.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-size: 1rem;\">But PDF or AI doesn\u2019t work for such a file.
