Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using dull or incorrect cutting tools, leading to rough edges and increased cutting time.Regularly sharpen cutting tools and select blades specifically designed for cutting thick carbon steel, such as carbide-tipped or bi-metal blades.
Insufficient workpiece clamping, causing vibration and inaccurate cuts.Utilize robust clamping mechanisms to firmly secure the stock sheet, ensuring stability throughout the cutting process.

Common Applications
