Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard drill bits without proper feed and speed, leading to chipping or melting.Utilize specialized polycarbonate drill bits or a high-speed steel bit with a 60-degree point angle. Maintain a moderate feed rate and adequate cooling to prevent heat buildup.
Over-tightening fasteners, causing stress cracks in the material.Employ washers and ensure fasteners are snug but not excessively tight. Leave a small amount of clearance in drilled holes to allow for thermal expansion and contraction.

Common Applications

  • Machine Guards & Enclosures
  • Impact Shields
  • Vision Panels in Material Handling Equipment

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents that can damage the polycarbonate surface.
  • Ensure proper ventilation during fabrication processes to remove dust and fumes.
