Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard cutting tools not designed for polymers.Utilize high-speed steel or carbide-tipped cutting tools with appropriate geometry for polycarbonate to prevent melting and chipping.
Applying excessive clamping pressure during fabrication.Employ moderate, evenly distributed clamping pressure to avoid stress concentrations and potential cracking in the polycarbonate sheet.

Common Applications

  • Precision polishing jigs and fixtures
  • Abrasion-resistant protective shields
  • Custom-machined component bases for finishing

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid contact with strong alkalis and certain hydrocarbons which can degrade polycarbonate.
  • Do not use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as they can scratch the surface.
