Step 2. Import the file to knife cutting machine software.

Step 3. Set the cutting Speed.

Step 4. Set the knife blade cutting depth.

Step 5. Click Start button to let machine cut.

What Is Smart PDLC Film?

Polymer Dispersed Liquid Crystal (PDLC) Film consists of micron sized droplets of liquid crystal dispersed in an optically isotropic polymer matrix. By choosing appropriate combinations of liquid crystal and polymer material, the PDLC film can be electrically switched from a light-scattering or opaque “off state” to a non-scattering or transparent “on state”. In the “off state”, the PDLC film appears milky white due to the refractive index mismatch encountered by incoming light at the liquid crystal/polymer interface.

How Does PDLC Film Work?

PDLC  is an active smart glass technology meaning it needs electricity to turn on and off. When a low voltage is applied (the ON state), the molecules align into a formed manner, allowing light to pass straight through, and making the glass transparent. As electricity is turned off, the LC molecules scatter randomly again, breaking the passage of light and turning the glass opaque.
