| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using standard carbon steel tools without proper lubrication or cooling, leading to tool wear and potential material work-hardening. | Employ high-speed steel (HSS) or carbide tooling with adequate coolant flow and appropriate cutting speeds when machining or fabricating. |
| Inadequate edge preparation after cutting, leaving sharp burrs that can shed particles into the lubrication system. | Thoroughly deburr all edges using files, grinding wheels, or specialized deburring tools, followed by a cleaning process. |
