Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using incorrect cutting tools leading to edge deformation.Employ shear blades, abrasive saws, or CNC plasma/laser cutters specifically designed for aluminum sheet to maintain clean edges.
Improper welding techniques resulting in porosity or cracking.Utilize TIG or MIG welding with Argon shielding gas and appropriate filler material (e.g., 4043 or 5356 alloy) to ensure strong, crack-free welds.
