The Advantages of Polycarbonate Keyboard Cases

Polycarbonate itself is a pretty special material, it has many structural and physical properties.  As a professional plastic machining supplier, we know well the advantages of this engineering material as well as machining tips. Therefore, we can take advantage of it to create quality cases.

√ Strength and Durability

Although Polycarbonate is plastic, it is still incredibly strong. To put its strength in perspective, it is lighter than glass, yet it has more than 200 times the impact strength of glass!

Furthermore, Polycarbonate is also shatterproof making our cases extremely resilient against drops and other damage.

So, trust us when we say our Polycarbonate part will stand up to the test of time quite nicely.

√ Greater Design Freedom

Polycarbonate is very easy to cut. As a result, this unlocks a wide variety of creative designs that customers can apply to their Keyboard cases.

There is also a wide range of colors available for  Polycarbonate cases. These colors include purple, pink, red, blue, etc. You can even have a simple, transparent case.

Thanks to Polycarbonate’s see-through structure, you can also install LED strips inside the Keyboard house for a bit of a light show.

√ Lightweight

Even though they are considered solid, Polycarbonate keyboard cases are surprisingly lightweight. Their lightweight makes it easier to store and carry them, while they still remain solid enough to resist any flex.

Our Product Specifications

RapidDone provides a complete manufacturing service of producing a wide variety of Polycarbonate CNC machined Keyboard cases. So no matter what type of custom specifications a customer brings to us, we can create it.

Here are the typical specifications that we can produce.

Mechanical Keyboards can come in a variety of standard sizes depending on the user’s taste and requirements. Standard keyboard sizes include the full-size (100%) keyboard, the 75% keyboard, the Tenkeyless (TKL) keyboard, and the compact (60 & 65%) keyboards.

Thanks to the state-of-the-art machines we have on the RapidDone shopfloor, we can produce even the largest of these keyboards without any hassle.

√ Material and Color

Polycarbonate comes in many different forms. Each of its variants has unique physical and visual properties that set it apart from others.

At RapidDone, we provide an extensive catalog of Polycarbonate materials our customers can choose from for their Keyboard cases. These materials include:

• Clear Polycarbonate
• Frosted Polycarbonate
• Colored/Tinted Polycarbonate
• Abrasion-resistant Polycarbonate, etc.

You can also specify if you want unique materials like Brass for the top plate. Designs like this are widespread, and they look great when executed properly.

√ Finishing

After machining the Polycarbonate case, we put it through a final finishing. The purpose of this is to remove any milling marks, give the case an excellent surface finish, and apply any surface customizations the customer requires.

Finishing processes for Polycarbonate Keyboard cases include:

• Deburring
• Polishing
• Sandblasting
• Silkscreen
