Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using a standard saw blade not designed for plastics, leading to chipping or melting.Employ a saw blade specifically engineered for cutting polycarbonate to ensure clean, smooth edges.
Applying excessive pressure during cutting, causing stress cracks or delamination.Maintain a steady, controlled feed rate and avoid forcing the material through the cutting tool.
