Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using inappropriate cutting tools that can cause excessive heat and alter the material's properties.Employ sharp, specialized metal cutting tools such as shears, plasma cutters, or waterjets, and maintain proper cooling to prevent heat-affected zones.
Inadequate cleaning after fabrication, leading to potential contamination in sensitive applications.Thoroughly degrease and clean the fabricated component using an approved industrial cleaner and deionized water, followed by a passivation process if required by the application.

Common Applications

  • Custom filter media fabrication
  • Industrial strainers and screens
