| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using standard cutting fluids not designed for aluminum lubrication applications. | Employ specialized cutting fluids formulated for aluminum to enhance lubricity, dissipate heat effectively, and prevent galling during fabrication. |
| Improper surface preparation leading to premature wear in the lubricating system. | Thoroughly degrease and deburr all edges and surfaces to ensure optimal contact and reduced friction within the intended application. |
