Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using inappropriate cutting tools, leading to chipping or cracking.Employ tools specifically designed for cutting polycarbonate, such as a laser cutter or a fine-toothed saw blade with a negative hook angle.
Over-tightening fasteners, causing stress cracks.Utilize properly sized holes with adequate clearance and consider using washers to distribute pressure when securing the sheet.

Common Applications

  • Machine Guards for Pneumatic Equipment
  • Protective Covers for Cylinders and Valves
  • Transparent Enclosures for Pneumatic Control Panels

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation without appropriate coatings, as it can degrade polycarbonate over time.
  • Ensure proper ventilation when machining polycarbonate to prevent the build-up of fumes.
