Loudness in lacquer vs PC

[Fela Borbone]

Hello dear Trolls,
I've got a question for somebody who cuts both lacquers an PC.
As PC is harder, I guess cuts may be quieter than lacquer, is that rigth?...If so, is just a little or is it really noticeable?
Does it make a big differnce when measuring sensitivity of a cutter head?(Thats why I'd like to know)
Thanks
Fela.

Well,
I mean policarbonate or other kind of plastic blanks, but being CUT, not embossed.
Thanks again!

interesting! does anyone cut lacquer and PC interchangeably?
I'm working towards that but haven't been able to get it all together

You’ll have lower level on plastic, not because it’s plastic but because of stylus geometry.
You’ll have distorsion in high frequency.
But you can reach the same level than lacquers with proper stylus having specific geometry.
