Enhance your FTC and FRC robot's resilience with Polycarbonate Sheets, clear and impact-resistant material designed for high-performance applications in competitive robotics. Offered by SWYFT Robotics, these sheets provide exceptional toughness, making them perfect for components that must withstand shocks and stresses without shattering.
Key Features
- Impact Resistance: Polycarbonate excels at absorbing impacts without breaking, ideal for protective plates, guards, or structural elements in demanding environments.
- Clear Visibility: Transparent design allows for easy inspection of underlying mechanisms while maintaining durability.
- Versatile Machining: Easily CNC milled, drilled, or tapped for precise custom fabrication.
- Laser Cutting Caution: Not recommended for CO2 laser cutters due to very toxic fumes; however, it's possible with a powerful exhaust system and air assist. Stock SWYFT CO2 Laser cutters sold by SWYFT are not sufficient—email support@swyftrobotics.com for guidance on necessary upgrades.
