| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using dull cutting blades, leading to poor surface finish and potential material deformation. | Employ sharp, high-quality cutting blades specifically designed for aluminum alloys. Maintain blade sharpness through regular inspection and replacement. |
| Inadequate clamping of the stock sheet, resulting in vibration and inaccurate cuts. | Utilize robust clamping mechanisms to firmly secure the sheet, preventing movement during the cutting process. Ensure clamps do not interfere with the cutting path. |
