Italian term or phrase: chiusura variabile
More about cartons coming out of a machine that manufactures them: "Le casse saranno chiuse mediante incollatura e *chiusura variabile* secondo i formati." I think that 'chiusura' may refer to the way the cartons are closed - that is, folded - prior to being glued, but I'm not certain. Thanks for the help.
