Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using incorrect cutting tools leading to uneven edges or material damage.Utilize industrial-grade metal cutting saws, plasma cutters, or waterjet systems for precise and clean cuts.
Inadequate surface preparation before welding or fastening, compromising joint strength.Thoroughly degrease and remove any rust, mill scale, or paint from the contact surfaces prior to welding or fastening.

Common Applications
