Stěny, žebra a šéfové
- Udržujte nominální stěny tak jednotné, jak funkce umožňuje.
- Tloušťka žeber je obvykle zlomek stěny k omezení umyvadla.
- Šéfové s jádry a gussets spíše než pevné hmoty.
- Vyhněte se náhlým tloušťkovým skokům, které zachytí teplo.
Draft, oddělení a kosmetika
| Item | Pokyny | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Draft | Přidat na uzavřené tváře & textury | Vypnutí & polský život |
| Rozdělovací linka | Umístěte A-povrchy | Kontrola kosmetiky |
| Ejektory | Povolit podložky na straně B | Značky svědků |
| Gates | Skrýt nebo karty, kde je to možné | Trim & amp; vzhled |
| Textury | Specify SPI / code early | Steel & draft impact |
Tolerances and assembly
Apply tight tolerances only to functional datums. Snap fits need material-specific deflection analysis. Living hinges require suitable resins (often PP). Insert molding needs insert material and knurl notes.
Pre-RFQ file readiness
- STEP with correct units.
- 2D critical dims and GD&T where needed.
- Resin grade and color.
- Annual volume for cavity proposal.

Gate, knit line and warpage awareness for designers
Even before moldflow, designers can anticipate knit lines opposite gates on cosmetic faces and move logos or textures accordingly. Long thin U-channels warp; add ribs or adjust cooling expectations with the toolmaker. Large flat panels may need structural ribbing that industrial design must approve early.
Metal inserts change local shrink and can cause cracks if sharp corners meet boss roots. Specify insert material, knurl and preheat assumptions. For transparent parts, gate blush and venting discipline dominate—share optical requirements explicitly.
DFM is iterative. Expect a first factory response with marked screenshots, then a revised CAD drop. HC-Mold’s free DFM on complete RFQs is intended to catch these issues before steel purchase, saving weeks of T2 corrections.
Buyer checklist before you issue the PO
Confirm drawings are revision-controlled, materials are purchasable in China within your schedule, and inspection methods are agreed in writing. Ambiguity at PO stage becomes cost later. List secondary operations, packaging and labeling so they are not treated as free extras. If multiple factories are bidding, freeze the same specification package for all—do not let informal calls create hidden scope differences.
Align internal stakeholders: industrial design owns cosmetics, engineering owns function, procurement owns total cost and risk. A single RFQ owner should consolidate feedback so the manufacturer receives one voice. For export programs, involve logistics early on Incoterms preference and whether tools or finished goods will cross borders.

FAQ
What draft for textured faces?
Textures generally need more draft than polished shut-offs. Confirm with texture depth and steel polish class.
Can DFM change my industrial design?
Slightly—engineers propose minimum changes that protect look while making the part moldable.
Should I moldflow every part?
Not always. Complex thin walls, large parts or cosmetic risk may justify flow analysis.
Is checklist enough without factory review?
Checklist reduces issues; factory DFM still catches process-specific risks.
