Laminated transparent components in polycarbonate or PMMA are engineered parts comprising two or more layers of transparent material bonded through autoclave lamination. They are developed for applications in which performance requirements cannot be achieved with a single monolithic layer or functional elements must be integrated between layers.
Lamination is the appropriate configuration when a project requires greater mechanical strength than a single layer can provide, integrated micro-wire heating systems for active demisting and defrosting, multilayer configurations with specified light transmittance, or components subject to continuous structural loads, such as aircraft windshields or glazing for emergency vehicles.
