| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using insufficient clamping pressure during machining, leading to vibration and inaccurate cuts. | Employ robust workholding solutions to securely fixture the sheet, minimizing flex and ensuring dimensional accuracy during fabrication. |
| Neglecting proper chip evacuation, causing tool breakage and poor surface finish. | Utilize high-pressure coolant or air blast during machining operations to effectively remove chips from the cutting zone. |
