A dieline folded into a carton
Each panel of the flat file lands on its face: the front with the logo, the right side's text, the yellow top.

Your dieline, folded into a box.
In 3D, at your size.
Attach the flat dieline and give the box size. Mixos AI builds the box, puts every panel of your artwork on its face and sets up the angles you need to check it before it goes to print.

MADE IN MIXOS01 / HOW IT WORKS
From flat file to folded box.
The box is built to the size you give, its template is computed from that size, and your dieline is laid onto it panel by panel.
- 01
Give the size
Width, height and depth in millimetres or inches, with the front as width by height. Tuck-end cartons, mailer boxes and shipping boxes are supported.
- 02
Attach the dieline
Lay your design out as the template: sides, front and back in a row, top above the front, bottom below it. Ask Mixos AI for the panel sizes or download the template as an SVG.
- 03
Check every face
Turn it, look at the top and the sides, and ask for a turntable. Swap one panel's art and only that face changes.

Made for checking artwork.
Panels where the printer puts them
The top panel reads from the front, the sides sit beside the front and the back follows the right side, as they do on a folded carton. A face that looks wrong in 3D is wrong on the flat file.
An honest fit
A dieline whose proportions do not match the box is fitted, not stretched, and Mixos AI says so, so you never approve a mockup that hid a sizing mistake.
Print finishes
Soft-touch, matte, satin, gloss, metallic or kraft board, chosen in a word. The finish changes how the light falls on the box, not the artwork.

Questions about 3D box mockup
Is Mixos AI available now?
Mixos AI is available in this build. Open the workspace with your Mixos account; conversational tools require paid access or unspent purchased credits. The expanded creation workspace is rolling out in preview builds.
What layout should my dieline have?
The standard cross: left side, front, right side and back in a row with the glue flap after the back, the top above the front and the bottom below it, with tuck flaps beyond. Ask Mixos AI for the exact panel sizes for your box.
Does it read die-cut lines?
No. The box is built from the size you give, and the dieline picture is placed on that template. Cut lines and bleeds are not traced.
Can I just use a front panel?
Yes. Attach the front art alone and the other panels take the stock colour, which Mixos AI reads from the artwork's own background.
Is this a print proof?
No. It is a visual mockup for checking design and making images. Approve print files with your printer's proof.
What is free, and what requires a paid plan?
Editing in the released Mixos apps is free with a Mixos account. AI generation consumes credits. Production exports require a paid plan or licence; the free plan includes a 512px watermarked render preview. See Pricing for current allowances. Watching the demonstrations on this page does not spend AI credits.
