Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using dull cutting tools, leading to burrs and material deformation.Employ sharp, high-quality cutting tools designed for aluminum to achieve clean edges and prevent damage.
Inadequate support during cutting, causing vibration and inaccurate dimensions.Provide firm, even support along the entire cut line to minimize flex and ensure dimensional accuracy.
