ACRYLIC STAND BASE SOLUTION
Loose Acrylic Stand Base Fix
Design and confirmation to prevent pedestal loosening of original IP acrylic stand before mass production
Main reasons why the pedestal feels loose
The pedestal hole is not the only reason why the acrylic stand's pedestal is loose. Multiple conditions are involved, such as the width of the insertion part of the main body, the thickness of the acrylic plate, the end face after laser cutting, the presence or absence of a protective film, and the pressure during packaging.
For the original IP Acstar, the finer the shape of the character, the more difficult it is to design the insertion part. If you prioritize appearance too much, it may lack stability when placed on a pedestal.
Points to consider when designing
Insert part
- width and length
- Rounded corners
- Stability of narrow foot design
pedestal side
- hole shape
- Pedestal size
- Possibility of common pedestal for multiple characters
When packaging
- How to separate the main body and pedestal
- Scratches during transportation
- Orientation inside OPP bag
Measures taken by Chinese OEMs
During the sample stage, we actually insert the product by hand and check the inclination when standing up, the hardness of insertion and removal, and the visual balance with the pedestal. If it is too strong, it will break easily, and if it is too loose, it will lead to complaints after sales.
If you are creating multiple characters at the same time, decide early whether to use a common pedestal or adjust the pedestal holes for each design. For lottery prizes and random products, it is also important to prevent pedestals from getting mixed up.
Pre-mass production checklist
| Main body | Insertion width, foot shape, thickness, cut end surface |
|---|---|
| pedestal | Hole shape, pedestal size, common pedestal or dedicated pedestal |
| sample | Hardness when inserting and removing, tilt, and stability when standing up |
| packaging | How to package the main body and pedestal, prevention of chafing, sorting by SKU |
Flow from production to delivery
FAQ
Will making the pedestal tighter solve the problem?
If it's too tight, it's likely to break when you insert it, so you need a balance between stability and ease of insertion.
Can I create multiple designs using a common pedestal?
It is possible, but the shape of the insertion part must be unified. If there is a large difference in design, we recommend a special pedestal.
Can the pedestal and main body be packaged separately?
can. Depending on the case, it may be best to separate the main body and pedestal in packaging to prevent scratches and damage.

Decision framework: Loose Acrylic Stand Base Fix
Use this loose acrylic stand base fix to decide and document tab and slot measurement, material-thickness variation, cutting kerf and corner shape, acceptable insertion and retention, finished-sample fit test, and controlled corrective action. The result should be an approval record that procurement, artwork, production, QC and packaging teams can apply to the same SKU.

What to lock before approval
A reliable decision has three parts: a written criterion, a representative finished sample and a repeatable verification method. Screenshots or verbal approvals are not enough when the decision affects material, fit, color, assembly or pack-out. The six controls below should appear in the same quotation, sample record and inspection instruction.
| Decision | What the buyer must define | Acceptable approval evidence |
|---|---|---|
| Tab and Slot Measurement | Define tab and slot measurement by SKU before quotation and do not replace it with a vague good-quality instruction. | Keep an approved dimensioned specification or controlled reference that production and QC can identify during bulk release. |
| Material-Thickness Variation | Define material-thickness variation by SKU before quotation and do not replace it with a vague good-quality instruction. | Keep an approved artwork proof and component record that production and QC can identify during bulk release. |
| Cutting Kerf and Corner Shape | Define cutting kerf and corner shape by SKU before quotation and do not replace it with a vague good-quality instruction. | Keep an approved representative physical sample that production and QC can identify during bulk release. |
| Acceptable Insertion and Retention | Define acceptable insertion and retention by SKU before quotation and do not replace it with a vague good-quality instruction. | Keep an approved sellable pack or use-condition check that production and QC can identify during bulk release. |
| Finished-Sample Fit Test | Define finished-sample fit test by SKU before quotation and do not replace it with a vague good-quality instruction. | Keep an approved inspection photo and measured result that production and QC can identify during bulk release. |
| Controlled Corrective Action | Define controlled corrective action by SKU before quotation and do not replace it with a vague good-quality instruction. | Keep an approved SKU-linked bulk report and carton trace that production and QC can identify during bulk release. |
Failure risks to close
- Tab and Slot Measurement is not controlled: suppliers can interpret the same request differently and the quotation is not comparable.
- Material-Thickness Variation is not controlled: the physical sample can pass while the wrong revision enters bulk production.
- Cutting Kerf and Corner Shape is not controlled: packing or use conditions reveal a failure that a loose visual sample did not show.
- Acceptable Insertion and Retention is not controlled: the buyer cannot separate an isolated defect from a repeated batch or SKU problem.

Sample-to-bulk control
Approve a finished sample that represents the intended artwork, construction and sellable package. Record the sample date, revision, dimensions, material or component codes, visual limits and function checks. If a later change affects artwork, material, hardware, assembly or packaging, identify the impacted SKUs and obtain a new approval instead of relying on the earlier sample.
For bulk inspection, use the same viewing conditions, measurement points and pass/fail language used during approval. The report should identify the purchase order, SKU, batch, sampled quantity and result. Photographs are useful evidence only when they show the relevant scale, lighting, label or test condition and can be traced to the inspected lot.
When comparing quotations, separate confirmed specifications from assumptions. Ask each supplier to identify exclusions, proposed substitutes, sampling scope, packaging labor and delivery basis. A lower figure is not equivalent when it omits a component, uses a different inspection level or assumes that several designs can share one uncontrolled pack. Close those differences before price approval so the purchase decision remains auditable.
