Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard woodworking blades which can cause chipping or melting.Employ blades specifically designed for plastics, featuring a high tooth count and appropriate rake angle to ensure clean cuts.
Over-tightening fasteners, leading to stress cracks.Use oversized holes for fasteners and avoid direct metal-to-plastic contact by incorporating washers or grommets.

Common Applications

  • Custom protective packaging inserts
  • Durable shipping crate components
  • Machine guards for packaging equipment

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Always wear appropriate safety eyewear and gloves when cutting or handling polycarbonate.
  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation without protective coatings, as it can degrade material properties over time.
