Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using inadequate clamping pressure, leading to vibration and imprecise cuts.Employ robust clamping mechanisms that provide sufficient force to hold the sheet firmly in place during all machining operations.
Employing incorrect tooling or speeds for aluminum, resulting in chip buildup and poor surface finish.Utilize sharp, high-speed steel or carbide cutting tools specifically designed for aluminum, and adhere to recommended cutting speeds to prevent overheating and ensure a clean cut.
