Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard cutting tools not designed for plastics, leading to chipping or melting.Employ specialized blades for polycarbonate or use a laser cutter. Maintain moderate cutting speeds to prevent heat buildup.
Over-tightening fasteners, causing stress cracks or deformation.Use appropriate spacing for mounting holes and employ washers to distribute pressure evenly. Avoid drilling too close to edges.

Common Applications

  • Machine guards and safety shields
  • Enclosures for pneumatic control panels
  • Sight glasses and viewing windows

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents that can damage polycarbonate's surface.
  • Ensure proper ventilation when cutting or fabricating to avoid inhalation of dust particles.
