Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using incorrect cutting tools that can induce excessive heat and warp the sheet.Employ precision cutting methods like waterjet or laser cutting, or ensure proper coolant management with plasma cutting to maintain material integrity.
Failing to properly deburr cut edges, creating sharp hazards and potential failure points.Utilize a deburring tool or file to create a smooth, chamfered edge on all cut surfaces.
