Polycarbonate
is an amorphous thermoplastic first made at Bayer and General Electric in 1957. It is often used in construction applications requiring transparent material and is easily machined, molded, and thermoformed.Polycarbonate has high mechanical strength, is biologically inert, and has good resistance to heat and impact.
Applications
- Face shields
- Lenses
- Instrument panels
- Signs and displays
- Aircraft components
- Automotive headlamps
Machining Options
CNC Milling
Mills use rotating tools to cut material into almost any 3D shape. CNC Mills can work with tight tolerances.
Waterjet Cutting
Waterjets mainly cut sheet material into 2D parts using a high-pressure stream of water and abrasive. Waterjet cutting is suitable for most materials and yields clean edges.
CNC Turning
CNC Lathes feed cutting tools into rotating material. Turning is mainly used to produce precise, cylindrical parts.
Injection Molding
Injection Molding produces parts by forcing molten polymer material into a mold. It’s the most economical process for producing high volumes of plastic parts.
