Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using incorrect cutting tools or settings, leading to chipping or stress fractures.Utilize carbide-tipped blades and appropriate feed rates for polycarbonate. Avoid excessive heat buildup.
Applying excessive clamping force during fabrication, causing stress points.Employ minimal, evenly distributed clamping pressure to prevent distortion or cracking.

Common Applications

  • Machine guards and safety shields
  • Protective glazing and windows
  • Custom industrial enclosures

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation without appropriate coatings, as this can degrade material properties.
  • Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents, as they can scratch or chemically attack the polycarbonate surface.
