Abstract
An exemplary system for manufacturing a decorated polycarbonate sheet can include a mold, which has a surface and a three-dimensional pattern formed on the surface, such that the three-dimensional pattern resembles a machined metal surface. A substrate can be configured to contact a curable photopolymer, such that the curable photopolymer forms a curable layup disposed between the substrate and the mold. A light source can be configured to cure the curable layup so as to form a cured layup. The mold can be configured to be separated from the cured layup, and the cured layup can have a decorative surface texture corresponding with the three-dimensional pattern, such that the decorative surface finish mirrors the three-dimensional pattern resembling the machined metal surface.
