Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using incorrect cutting tools or techniques, leading to burrs or deformation.Employ sharp, appropriate cutting blades (e.g., carbide-tipped) and maintain consistent feed rates for clean cuts.
Inadequate support during machining or handling, causing bending or warping.Ensure the sheet is properly supported on a stable surface during all fabrication and handling processes.

Common Applications

  • Custom material handling carts
  • Conveyor system components
  • Industrial shelving and racking

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Handle sharp edges with care.
  • Ensure proper ventilation when cutting or welding.
