| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using standard steel cutting tools without proper adjustments, potentially leading to rapid tool wear and poor cut quality on aluminum. | Utilize specialized carbide or high-speed steel cutting tools designed for aluminum, and adjust feed rates and speeds accordingly. |
| Applying excessive heat during welding or forming, which can alter the material's temper and reduce its mechanical strength. | Employ proper welding techniques (e.g., TIG, MIG) with appropriate heat input control and consider pre-heating or post-weld heat treatment if necessary for critical applications. |
