Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard cutting tools not designed for aluminum, leading to burring and material deformation.Employ carbide-tipped or specialized aluminum cutting blades to ensure clean cuts and minimize post-processing.
Inadequate surface preparation before welding, resulting in porosity and weakened joints.Thoroughly clean the weld area with a stainless steel brush and degreaser specifically for aluminum to remove oxides and contaminants.
