Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Improper material handling leading to surface damage or deformation.Store sheets flat on a level surface, supported at multiple points, and use non-abrasive handling equipment.
Using incorrect tooling for cutting or forming, resulting in poor edge quality or dimensional inaccuracies.Select cutting blades and forming dies specifically designed for aluminum alloys, considering the sheet's thickness and temper.
