Abstract
By reviewing a display stand project developed for our customer, this article systematically analyzes the assembly issues that arose during the sample testing phase and a series of secondary quality defects. The customer's primary feedback focused on "parts being too tight and difficult to assemble," accompanied by issues such as uneven surfaces, deformation, cracking, parting line defects, internal marks, sharp residual edges, and missing components. These problems not only affected the end-user experience but also posed significant risks to yield, production cycle time, and long-term durability. This article reviews the process of problem identification and validation, deeply analyzes the root causes, and summarizes comprehensive solutions in structural optimization, process improvement, injection mold modification, and quality verification. This is particularly critical in plastic injection molding projects.
Problem
The original intent of the project was to provide a display stand for figurines that combined both aesthetics and functionality. However, after the stand samples were submitted for approval, the customer reported assembly difficulties. The main issue was that the fit between components was too tight, preventing smooth assembly. The customer wanted a stand that could be easily assembled, remain stable without wobbling after placement, and feature a refined appearance. Yet the feedback on the first batch of samples was: "The parts are too tight; they won't go in even with force!" At the same time, issues such as uneven surfaces and burrs were also observed. This clearly deviated from the customer's core user experience requirements.
In the early stages of the project, we identified risks through drawing analysis and proactively proposed modification suggestions. In fact, such issues are not uncommon in the industry. Some suppliers typically adopt a passive "build-to-print" approach when faced with customer drawings, neglecting the comprehensive evaluation of tolerance stack-up, material shrinkage, and injection mold accuracy. As a result, first samples often suffer from assembly difficulties or even scrap. Our engineering philosophy, however, has always emphasized "front-loaded quality control" and "design for assembly (DFA)."

At every design review stage, we proactively conduct assembly simulations and tolerance stack-up analyses to assess potential risks in advance,ensuring manufacturability and assembly stability from the design stage. This methodology has helped us earn customer trust and effectively avoid large-scale rework and delays later on. This is particularly critical in plastic injection molding projects.
In our initial response, we believed that "a step difference of 0.1 mm was within the normal range," but the facts proved that this judgment was overly conservative. To thoroughly resolve the issue, the company quickly established a dedicated task force to conduct a comprehensive review and in-depth analysis of the entire workflow covering design, injection molds, and processes. This is particularly critical in plastic injection molding projects.
Through process data review and CAE simulation analysis, we identified the core causes of the assembly difficulty. In addition, the lack of lead-in chamfers and fillet designs made it difficult for components to self-align when tolerance deviations existed. Uneven torque during assembly led to localized stress concentration, becoming a potential trigger for product deformation and cracking. Meanwhile, improper control of process parameters further exacerbated the problem. These apparent issues compounded one another and ultimately manifested as the assembly difficulty and cosmetic defects perceived by the customer. In injection process optimization, attention must be paid to injection mold process parameters.
Solutions
Listening carefully to requirements, translating them accurately, and making agile adjustments. Our core strategy was to precisely convert the customer's scenario-based and experience-driven requirements into executable engineering standards and implement adjustments rapidly.
Redefining the standard of "easy assembly": we confirmed with the customer what "smooth assembly" specifically meant (e.g., gentle one-handed push, no tools required) and translated it into measurable clearance and tolerance requirements (adjusting from positive tolerance to a reasonable small clearance fit).Upgraded packaging protection: dedicated blister trays were designed to prevent deformation caused by compression during transportation.

We quickly formulated a systematic improvement plan covering structural design through mass production validation. At the design level, we redefined tolerance designs for critical mating dimensions and predicted shrinkage rates in regions with different wall thicknesses. By redefining tolerance ranges, we adjusted interference fits to reasonable clearance fits. All insertion ends were equipped with lead-in chamfers and fillet structures, giving components self-alignment capability and significantly improving assembly stability and safety.
In terms of mold improvements, flash risks were eliminated and air traps at flow ends were improved. For gate marks, we adopted more concealed submarine or pin gate designs to achieve smoother surfaces. We applied DOE (Design of Experiments) methods to systematically study the combined effects of temperature, pressure, holding time, and cooling speed, identifying the optimal process window from data. We also established assembly torque standards and quantified assembly smoothness using force-measuring equipment, ensuring consistent user experience through objective metrics. To prevent deformation caused by compression during transportation, we redesigned the packaging structure and adopted customized blister or pulp trays to ensure the stability and safety of each component during transit.
The initial design adopted relatively tight tolerances (positive tolerances) in pursuit of "zero clearance," but under complex structures and material shrinkage, this became an "interference fit," leading to assembly difficulties. The lack of "fault-tolerant" design, such as sufficient lead-in chamfers, meant that even slight deviations caused jamming. This is equally important in plastic injection molding projects.
Testing and Validation
The improved samples underwent multiple rounds of rigorous testing. In blind tests, ordinary users were able to complete assembly easily without excessive force. Durability testing showed that after thousands of assembly and disassembly cycles, no loosening, cracking, or fit changes occurred. Sharp edges and burrs were completely eliminated through inspection, ensuring the product's safety for painted surfaces. Such assembly analysis is also an important step in plastic component manufacturing.

Through systematic analysis and improvements, we successfully resolved the assembly and related quality issues in the display stand project. The final samples received unanimous customer approval, featuring smooth assembly, refined appearance, and stable structure. Product yield increased to over 98%, and production cycles returned to normal. A closed-loop optimization mechanism was formed across design, injection molds, processes, and quality control.
