| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using incorrect cutting tools, leading to material deformation or poor edge quality. | Employ cutting tools specifically designed for aluminum, ensuring proper blade selection and cooling to maintain material integrity. |
| Failing to account for thermal expansion/contraction in design, particularly for large enclosures. | Incorporate expansion joints or flexible mounting points in the design to accommodate material movement under varying temperature conditions. |
