Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard cutting tools not designed for aluminum, leading to poor cut quality and tool damage.Employ specialized aluminum cutting blades or waterjet cutting for clean, precise edges and extended tool life.
Failing to account for thermal expansion during cutting or welding, resulting in dimensional inaccuracies.Allow sufficient cooling time between operations and consider the material's expansion coefficient in your design and process planning.
