Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using incorrect cutting tools, leading to burrs and inconsistent edges.Utilize high-quality metal cutting tools such as a bandsaw with a fine-tooth blade, a shear, or a CNC plasma cutter appropriate for aluminum.
Inadequate surface preparation before welding or bonding, compromising joint strength.Thoroughly degrease and abrade the surfaces to be joined. For welding, ensure a clean, oxide-free surface using appropriate aluminum preparation techniques.
