"Sticky-Tacky" Sawdust Eliminated

A common problem in cutting acrylics is “sticky-tacky” sawdust that stays attached to the just cut edge. This usually shows up on two ways: sawdust clusters on the parts of plastic extrusion or sawdust fuses or melts to the sides of single or stacked sheets. When this occurs on stacked sheets, they stick together. This problem is bothersome and costly as each piece must be deburred or cleaned up manually. Forrest Manufacturing has a number of saw blade designs that help businesses reduce and in most cases eliminate this “tacky” sawdust – fusing/melting problem. Forrest offers saw blades in sizes from 5” to 24” for a wide range of cutting systems and material. With over 55 years experience as a leading producer of carbide tipped saw blades, Forrest Manufacturing can help businesses improve their cutting operations and bottom line.
