A method is designed to test the resilience force by using it as the evaluation indicator of folding performance of honeycomb carton. The test results show with the increasing of the creasing depth, the resilience increases firstly and then decreases. When the creasing depth is equal to or thicker than core paper thickness, the resilience force is minimal; the ability of honeycomb paperboard is the best for staying in the state of creasing and folding position. For honeycomb paperboards with apertures of 6, 15, 20 mm, when the creasing rule radius are 1, 1.5, 2 mm respectively, the resilience is minimal. Therefore the creasing rule radius should be adjusted with the aperture sizes. The creasing rule radius should increase appropriately with the increasing of the honeycomb paperboard aperture size.
