The Problem: Skew between the LCD display and Lens artwork. Affects: • Appearance • Customer confidence in quality LCD Display 345-6789* Lens Artwork *numbers superimposed on image
Analysis Approach • Review Assembly • Create Simplified Model • Analyze Constraints • Calculate Assembly Tolerance (skew) • Results and Recommendations Demonstrate 1-D Excel Solver
Task 1: Review Assembly
Assembly Photos: Front Case Lens Outside Inside Electronics Artwork (permanent decal) Gasket LCD PCB
Assembly Photos: Front Case Lens Outside Inside Electronics Loose Artwork placement is process controlled Lens is held by adhesive Slot/Hole 2 Pins
Display to Lens Artwork Assembly Graph:
Task 2: Create Simplified Model
Display to Lens Artwork Simplified Assembly Graph:
Range of rotation determined by clearance 1-D Stack of angular variation between components Skew between Lens Artwork & Display No vector loop required because: There are no kinematic joints Only analyzing rotation Simplified Model:
Task 3: Analyze Constraints Identify critical features controlling angular variation
Features Analyzed: • Pin Positioning -Side-to-side relation -How far pins seat in holes • Interference between Gasket & Display -Could prevent proper seating of pins
Pin Positioning: Process-Dependant Consideration < a) Deterministic angle b) Random angle Force Closed Assembly Random Location in Clearance **Cell PhoneApplication: Gasket fixes it in random position
Pin Positioning: General Case • Side-to-side Consideration d2 > d1 P2 Contacts on Right d2 < d1 P2 Contacts on Left
Pin Positioning:Hole vs. Slot 2 Pin / 2 Hole 2 Pin / Hole & Slot Nominal Position Extreme Position Angular Displacement
Gasket/Display Interference: Requirements for pin self-alignment: • C1 > C2 • C3 0, before the gasket makes contact
Gasket/Display Analysis: C6 C2
Predicted range: -0.23 to +0.11 (RSS) • Gasket will sometimes not seat on display glass • Centering of pins affected by too much interference Gasket/Display Analysis: Interference between the Display & Gasket (*Negative value desired ) C2
Predicted range: -0.96 to -0.62 (RSS) • Full pin diameter enters the hole before the gasket contacts Gasket/Display Analysis: Pin shoulder depth in hole when the gasket first seats C6
Task 4: Calculate Assembly Tolerance (skew)
Example: 2Pin/2Hole Equivalent Angle: Angular variation for each contributing process variation
} Desired Skew limits:±0.78 º 2.70 assembly process quality level 3 limits from Tolerance:±0.87 º Angular Variation (3):

Task 5: Results & Recommendations
Conclusions: • Tolerance analysis shows areas of concern • Possible redesign and tolerance allocation will allow improved results
Advantages: • Gasket always seats with pins centered • Angular variation is decreased (clearance B<A) • No need to bottom out the pin in the hole Suggested Redesign: Present Design Suggested Redesign
1-D Analysis in Excel: • Enter inputs values and assembly specifications.
1-D Analysis in Excel: • Review Reports: Stack-Up, Assembly Quality
