Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard cutting tools not designed for thick brass, leading to poor edge quality and potential material stress.Employ specialized industrial metal cutting equipment such as abrasive saws, waterjet cutters, or CNC plasma cutters for clean, precise cuts.
Failing to account for thermal expansion during fabrication processes, which can lead to dimensional inaccuracies in the final product.Incorporate appropriate allowances for thermal expansion in design and fabrication calculations, especially for applications involving significant temperature fluctuations.
