Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using a standard wood or metal cutting blade.Always use a high-tooth-count blade designed for cutting plastics to achieve a clean, chip-free edge and prevent material damage.
Applying excessive force during cutting.Allow the saw to do the work; applying too much pressure can lead to melting, chipping, or cracking of the polycarbonate.

Common Applications

  • Machine Guarding
  • Protective Barriers
  • Greenhouse Glazing

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE), including safety glasses and gloves, when handling and cutting polycarbonate.
  • Ensure adequate ventilation when working with polycarbonate, especially during cutting and fabrication, to avoid inhalation of fumes.
