Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard steel cutting tools without proper lubrication.Employ high-speed steel or carbide-tipped cutting tools with a suitable coolant or lubricant to prevent premature wear and ensure clean cuts.
Inadequate workpiece clamping, leading to vibration and inaccurate cuts.Securely clamp the stock sheet using robust vises or clamps to minimize vibration and maintain dimensional accuracy throughout the cutting process.

Common Applications
