Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard acrylic cutting tools which can lead to chipping or cracking.Employ specialized polycarbonate cutting tools, such as fine-tooth blades designed for plastics, and maintain proper cutting speed and feed rates.
Applying excessive stress or heat during bending or forming, causing hazing or delamination.Utilize controlled heating methods and appropriate bending radii for polycarbonate to prevent internal stresses and maintain optical clarity.
