Milled & Vapor Polished Polycarbonate Coverplate

This part is an example of our milling department’s capabilities.  It is machined out of a sheet of polycarbonate and vapor polished to a perfectly clear finish.  Engineers designing parts that require visually or optically clear finishes should know that polycarbonate is an excellent material choice.  Acrylic works well too but polycarbonate polishes to a clearer finish almost every time.

This part is used in a light housing and is implemented as a lens.  The inside of the lens has been cosmetically machined to help with light diffusion.
