Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard cutting tools not rated for brass, leading to uneven edges or tool damage.Employ specialized cutting tools designed for non-ferrous metals, ensuring sharp edges and appropriate feed rates.
Insufficient clamping during machining, resulting in vibration and poor surface finish.Secure the brass stock sheet firmly with appropriate clamping mechanisms to minimize movement and vibration during fabrication.
