Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Drilling holes too close to edges without reinforcement.Maintain a minimum edge distance of at least twice the hole diameter to prevent cracking.
Using abrasive cleaning agents or tools that scratch the surface.Clean with mild soap and water, and use non-abrasive cloths or sponges.

Common Applications

  • Custom pneumatic system enclosures
  • Machine guarding and safety shields
  • Clear sight windows for pneumatic valves and cylinders

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to high UV radiation without UV-resistant coatings, as it may lead to yellowing and degradation.
  • Do not use harsh solvents such as acetone or MEK, as they can cause crazing and damage the polycarbonate.
