Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using inadequate lifting equipment for the sheet's weight and thickness, potentially leading to injury or damage.Always employ appropriate mechanical lifting devices (e.g., vacuum lifters, cranes) rated for the sheet's dimensions and material density. Personnel should be trained in safe material handling procedures.
Improper cleaning prior to installation, leading to surface contamination and compromised performance of subsequent processes.Thoroughly degrease and clean the sheet surface with a suitable industrial solvent or alkaline cleaner before installation. Ensure all residues are removed.
