Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using incorrect cutting tools, leading to burrs or material deformation.Employ high-speed steel or carbide-tipped cutting tools specifically designed for aluminum alloys. Maintain proper feed rates and lubrication.
Failing to account for thermal expansion during fabrication or operation.Consider the coefficient of thermal expansion for Aluminum 6061 when designing components and assembly tolerances, especially in temperature-fluctuating environments.
