More on diamond polishingChoosing the right process
The right process depends mainly on the material and the shape. Detailed acrylic parts are usually laser cut, while polycarbonate, PVC, ACM and engineering plastics are routed. Straight panels are cut to size and, where the edges are visible, diamond polished. If you are unsure, we will recommend the method that gives the best result for your budget.
