Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using a standard saw blade which can cause melting and chipping.Employ a saw blade with a fine tooth pitch and a negative hook angle for clean cuts in polycarbonate.
Applying excessive force during cutting, leading to stress cracks.Maintain a steady, moderate feed rate and allow the saw to do the work, avoiding pressure.
