Installation Procedure

1. Precisely cut the polycarbonate sheet to the required dimensions using a fine-tooth saw or laser cutter. 2. Drill mounting holes using a sharp bit designed for plastics, ensuring adequate chip clearance to prevent binding. 3. Secure the fabricated component to the pneumatic system structure using appropriate fasteners, avoiding overtightening to prevent stress cracking.

Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard drill bits, which can lead to chipping or melting.Utilize specialized plastic drill bits with a sharp point and proper rake angle, and employ a slow to moderate drill speed.
Over-tightening fasteners, causing localized stress and potential cracking.Hand-tighten fasteners and use washers to distribute the load, or employ a torque wrench to adhere to recommended specifications.
