Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard wood cutting blades, which can cause chipping or melting.Utilize blades specifically designed for plastics or polycarbonate, ensuring a slow, steady feed rate.
Drilling holes too close to the edge without proper support, leading to stress cracks.Maintain adequate edge distance when drilling and consider using pilot holes or a drill press for controlled drilling.

Common Applications

  • Machine guarding and safety shields
  • Glazing for industrial windows and skylights
  • Custom fabrication of protective enclosures

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Always wear appropriate safety glasses and gloves when cutting or fabricating.
  • Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners that can damage the polycarbonate surface.
