Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using incorrect cutting tools that can cause excessive heat or damage the material.Employ tools specifically designed for cutting brass, and maintain appropriate feed rates and coolant to prevent overheating and maintain edge quality.
Failing to account for material expansion/contraction due to temperature changes during processing.Allow for thermal expansion in designs and during fabrication steps, especially in precision applications.

Common Applications
