Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard wood or metal cutting tools, leading to chipping and melting.Employ specialized plastic cutting tools and techniques, such as those with a high tooth count and coolant, to achieve clean, smooth edges.
Over-tightening fasteners, causing stress cracks around mounting holes.Drill oversized holes and use washers to distribute pressure evenly when securing the polycarbonate, avoiding direct metal-to-plastic contact.

Common Applications

  • Pneumatic control panel enclosures
  • Machine guarding for automated systems
  • Sight glasses and inspection windows in pneumatic circuits

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation without appropriate coatings, as it can cause yellowing and degradation.
  • Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents, as they can damage the surface finish and optical clarity.
