Protection
The photograph below illustrates a typical
archive, books, documents and artefacts stored on
shelving. All would benefit from being stored in
an archival box or folder. This can be achieved
by using KASEMAKE CXD, an in-house manufacturing
system for the production of phase boxes,
archival boxes, folders, wallets etc.
The photograph above illustrates how documents
can be stored by using the CXD system. The next
few slides take you step by step through the
process of making phase boxes the fast, accurate
and easy way, the KASEMAKE-CXD way.

Book Measure
Using the simple interface, enter information
such as Archive Number, material and style
4
Book Measure
Size data is automatically entered into the
system.
Place the book on to the measuring area. Using
the measuring tablet identify the Width, Height
and Spine of the book.
Data can be stored locally or saved onto a
central server for further processing.
5
Database
Within the KASEMAKE Software, the measured jobs
are imported into the integral database,
automatically creating a records for each
individual item.
Jobs waiting to be boxed using a specific board
type (such as 1000 micron archival boxboard) can
all be found in the database by selecting a
stored query. Operators can also run their own
customised queries if required.
6
Sheet fill
The Fill Sheet command is then used to fill the
blank sheet with designs from the job database.
It tells the software where the list of box
styles is stored, as well as other information,
like the spacing between boxes, whether they can
be rotated for better fit and so on
The command then checks the list of jobs in the
database for the first job that will fit into the
sheet and loads the correctly sized box design
automatically.  
7
Sheet fill
The operator can choose to skip a box design and
go to the next in the database list, or accept
the design. They can also rotate the box for a
better fit if required.
This process is repeated until the sheet is full,
or there are no more jobs available in the
database. A complete sheet can be filled in a
few seconds using this method, ready for cutting
on the cutting machine
When the design has been accepted by the
operator, the next job in the database that fits
in the available remaining space is found and
inserted automatically.
8
Sheet fill
As the software loads the box design, text from
the database can be placed automatically onto the
box (for example the book title, archive
reference number and so on)
Also an overview identifying text can be shown on
the box on the software screen. This is just so
the operator can view it easily to identify the
design, it does not have to be plotted onto the
box.

Standard Styles
Here are a selection of designs of boxes and
folders, developed for and by conservators, and
supplied as standard in the KASEMAKE-CXD
software. There are many more delivered with the
system
