Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard wood cutting blades which can cause chipping and melting.Employ a carbide-tipped blade with a fine tooth pitch (e.g., 6-8 teeth per inch) designed for plastics.
Applying excessive force during cutting, leading to cracking or delamination.Maintain a steady, moderate feed rate and allow the blade to do the work.

Common Applications

  • Machine guarding and safety shields
  • High-impact industrial windows and partitions
  • Protective enclosures for sensitive equipment

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE), including safety glasses and gloves.
  • Ensure proper ventilation when cutting or machining polycarbonate to dissipate fumes.
