Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using inadequate cutting tools, leading to imprecise edges and potential material stress.Employ industrial-grade cutting equipment suitable for the material thickness and ensure blades/discs are sharp and maintained.
Neglecting proper edge finishing after cutting, which can create safety hazards.Deburr and smooth all cut edges to remove sharp points and burrs, ensuring a safe surface for handling and subsequent assembly.
