Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard cutting tools not rated for polycarbonate.Employ carbide-tipped blades with appropriate tooth pitch and speed for clean cuts and to avoid material stress.
Overheating during machining, leading to melting or deformation.Maintain adequate cooling during machining processes, using coolant or air blast to dissipate heat effectively.

Common Applications

  • Low-friction wear strips
  • Self-lubricating bearing surfaces
  • Guide rails in automated systems

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation without appropriate protection, as it can degrade polycarbonate over time.
  • Ensure proper ventilation when machining to manage airborne dust.
