It depends on the specifics of your application. For instance, you may even want to look at laser cutting for some polycarbonate materials. Abrasive waterjet may be a good solution, though. Check out our page with more info on our abrasive waterjet cutting services.

Depending on how thick of material you are using, we would recommend using water-only waterjet for polycarbonate up to .032″. From there, you may have to switch to abrasive waterjet which cuts up to 12″ thick.
