1. Start with the product surface goal
Buyers should define whether the housing needs a matte texture, fine grain, leather-like texture, polished surface, painted surface or logo area. Different surfaces hide or reveal weld lines, flow marks, scratches and gate vestige differently.
2. Texture usually needs more draft angle
A textured vertical wall creates more friction during demolding than a polished wall. If draft angle is too small, the part may drag, scratch or show uneven gloss. Texture depth should be reviewed together with ribs, bosses, parting line and ejector layout before steel is cut.
3. Texture changes mold work and correction risk
Once texture is applied, some mold corrections become harder. Huanze recommends finishing DFM review, parting line confirmation, gate position and sample corrections before final texture work whenever possible.
4. Approve texture with real lighting and handling
Golden samples should show acceptable texture, gloss, color and visible defect level under agreed lighting. For housings handled by users, touch feeling and scratch visibility may matter as much as dimensions.
5. Review housing texture with Huanze
