 Polycarbonate Chrome Ink Printing Front Custom Graphic Overlay For Medical Equipment

Adobe Photoshop

1. Create a New Document: Set the dimensions based on your video resolution (e.g., 1920x1080 for HD).
2. Design Your Overlay: Use layers to add text, shapes, and images. You can also apply effects like shadows or gradients.
3. Export: Save your design as a PNG with a transparent background to maintain the overlay effect.

Adobe Illustrator

1. Set Up Your Artboard: Similar to Photoshop, choose the appropriate size for your overlay.
2. Design Elements: Utilize vector graphics for scalability. Create logos, icons, or any other design elements.
3. Export: Save your artwork as a PNG or SVG file for use in video editing software.

Adobe Premiere Pro

1. Import Your Overlay: Bring your PNG or SVG file into your project.
2. Layering: Place the overlay on a video track above your main footage.
3. Adjust Position and Scale: Use the effects controls to position and resize your overlay as needed.

Adobe After Effects

1. Create a New Composition: Set the resolution and duration for your overlay.
2. Import Graphics: Bring in your designs from Photoshop or Illustrator.
3. Animate (Optional): Use keyframes to add animations to your overlay for a dynamic effect.
4. Export: Render your composition for use in other video editing software.

Polycarbonate

• Polycarbonate is a type of thermoplastic polymer known for its high impact resistance and optical clarity.
• It is a popular material choice for industrial control panels, equipment covers, and overlay graphics.
• Key benefits of polycarbonate include:
  • Durability - High impact and scratch resistance
  • Transparency - Can be clear or tinted/colored
  • Machinability - Can be easily fabricated and molded
  • Thermal resistance - Withstands heat and cold well

Material

• Common materials include vinyl, polyester, polyimide (Kapton), and polyethylene terephthalate (PET) films.
• The material needs to be durable, chemical/solvent resistant, and able to withstand temperature extremes.

Adhesive

• Pressure-sensitive adhesives like acrylic or rubber-based are common.
• The adhesive must have strong bonding strength to adhere securely to various surfaces.
• It should also resist peeling, lifting, and degradation over time.

Here are some examples of common Lexan polycarbonate products used for industrial overlay and enclosure designs:

1. Lexan FMR (Flame Mitigating Resin) Sheets

• Formulated with flame-retardant additives to meet stringent fire safety standards
• Often used for control panel faceplates, switch plates, and equipment housings
• Available in clear, tinted, and opaque color options

2. Lexan EXL Impact-Modified Sheets

• Engineered for superior impact resistance and toughness
• Ideal for overlays, bezels, and enclosures that need to withstand abuse
• Maintains optical clarity and dimensional stability under impact

3. Lexan HPS (High Performance Sheet)

• Offers excellent chemical, temperature, and UV resistance
• Used for outdoor equipment, harsh environment enclosures
• Can be metallized or coated for specialized surface finishes

4. The typical thickness range for polycarbonate front panes used in industrial control panels can vary, but generally falls within the following ranges:

   Standard Thickness:
   1.5 mm to 3.0 mm
   This is the most common thickness range for basic polycarbonate front panes. This thickness provides a good balance of durability, optical clarity, and cost-effectiveness.

   Thicker Panels:
   4.0 mm to 6.0 mm
   Thicker polycarbonate panels may be used in applications that require enhanced physical protection or larger panel sizes. The increased thickness adds more impact resistance and rigidity to the front pane.

   Specialized Thicknesses:
   0.75 mm to 1.25 mm
   8.0 mm to 12.0 mm
