Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard cutting tools not rated for aluminum, leading to poor edge quality and tool damage.Employ carbide-tipped or specialized aluminum cutting tools with appropriate feed rates and speeds for optimal results.
Improper storage leading to oxidation or minor dents that compromise precision.Store sheets flat in a dry environment, ideally on a non-abrasive surface, and cover with protective sheeting.
