Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard drill bits without proper cooling.Employ high-speed steel drill bits with a sharp point and utilize a cutting fluid or coolant to prevent overheating and potential melting.
Applying excessive force during cutting or shaping.Use appropriate cutting tools designed for plastics and apply steady, controlled pressure to avoid stress fractures and achieve clean edges.

Common Applications

  • Protective guards for polishing machinery
  • Custom jigs and fixtures for abrasive finishing
  • Impact-resistant windows in polishing environments

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation without UV-resistant coatings, as it can lead to yellowing and degradation.
  • Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents that are incompatible with polycarbonate, as they can cause surface damage and reduce clarity.
