Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard carbon steel cutting tools without proper lubrication or cooling.Employ specialized carbide or high-speed steel tooling with adequate coolant to prevent premature wear and ensure clean cuts.
Neglecting to deburr edges thoroughly after cutting.Thoroughly deburr all cut edges to prevent stress risers and potential initiation points for corrosion or fatigue.
