Abstract :
This paper presents a wide study on carton packaging and on the carton. The reasons that pushed this study are highlighted. Moreover the object of study is to investigate in order to justify the chose. First of all, the carton characteristics are investigate. Origami carton was chosen as a case study. That permitted to consider the reconfigurability into mechanism development. Moreover the carton are modelled and the trajectories are output. All these information are shown in the introducing part.
