| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using standard cutting tools without proper coolant or speed settings, leading to material hardening or tool damage. | Employ high-speed steel or carbide cutting tools specifically designed for aluminum, utilizing adequate coolant and recommended cutting speeds to maintain material integrity and tool life. |
| Inadequate surface preparation prior to welding or bonding, resulting in weak joints or compromised corrosion resistance. | Thoroughly degrease and mechanically clean (e.g., wire brushing) all surfaces to be joined. For welding, ensure proper shielding gas and filler material selection for Aluminum 6061. |
