Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using incorrect cutting tools for brass, leading to burring and poor edge quality.Utilize carbide-tipped or high-speed steel cutting tools specifically designed for machining brass, ensuring sharp edges and appropriate feed rates.
Failure to adequately support the sheet during machining, resulting in vibration and inaccurate cuts.Employ robust clamping mechanisms and support fixtures to maintain sheet rigidity throughout the fabrication process, minimizing vibration and ensuring precise cuts.

Common Applications

  • Hydraulic Valve Bodies
  • Manifold Blocks
  • Custom Hydraulic Fittings
