Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard carbon steel blades for cutting aluminum.Employ specialized carbide-tipped blades designed for non-ferrous metals to achieve clean cuts and extend blade life.
Improper clamping leading to vibration and burr formation.Securely clamp the sheet on both sides of the cutting line to minimize movement and ensure a smooth, precise cut.

Common Applications

  • Structural components in aerospace and automotive industries
