Installation Procedure

1. Precisely measure and mark the polycarbonate sheet according to your design specifications. 2. Utilize appropriate cutting tools (e.g., circular saw with fine-tooth blade, laser cutter) for clean edges, maintaining tool speed to prevent melting. 3. Secure the fabricated polycarbonate component using appropriate fasteners, avoiding over-tightening to prevent stress cracking. Pre-drilling holes is recommended.

Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard woodworking blades for cutting.Employ specialized blades designed for plastics, such as fine-tooth carbide-tipped blades, to prevent chipping and melting.
Overtightening fasteners, causing stress fractures.Drill holes slightly larger than the fastener diameter and use washers to distribute pressure, avoiding excessive torque during installation.
