All plastic parts suffer deformations during cooling of the material after the injection process. The effect is called warpage. This problem is known by all mechanical design engineers and in development, each engineer tries to compensate this warpage using different design solutions. In this article we are analyzing one important solution for warpage compensation and we will present our results and the optimization steps that led us to the results. The solution is a step for a vertical wall of the housings. For this step we analyzed different dimensions and combinations to provide the best solution.
