Using the Right Power Saw to Cut Plastic Materials

摘要

Many distributor and fabricator shops will purchase machinery to cut plastic. The question is whether or not this machine was really designed to cut this type of material? It all depends on the machine manufacturer and what they state in their owner's/operator's manuals. For example, many companies use a table saw and install a blade that was designed to cut plastic however when you actually read the owner's/operator's manuals, it will usually state that the machine was designed and built to meet a certain American National Standards Institute (ANSI) standard. If you look at your table saw and you see ANSI 01.1 on its data plate or in its user manual, that machine was designed to cut wood and not plastic or metal. So let the buyer beware.
