Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard cutting tools not designed for polycarbonate, leading to chipping or melting.Employ specialized carbide-tipped blades or laser cutting with proper cooling to achieve clean, precise cuts without material degradation.
Over-tightening fasteners, causing stress cracking around mounting points.Utilize washers and torque fasteners to the manufacturer's recommended specifications, ensuring even load distribution and preventing point loading.

Common Applications

  • Custom Pneumatic Enclosures
  • Machine Guarding for Pneumatic Equipment
  • Sight Glasses for Pneumatic Reservoirs

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to strong alkaline solutions and certain aromatic hydrocarbons, which can degrade polycarbonate.
  • Ensure proper ventilation when machining to dissipate heat and prevent localized melting.
