| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using incorrect cutting tools leading to burrs and material deformation. | Employ sharp, high-speed cutting tools specifically designed for aluminum, such as carbide-tipped blades or milling cutters, with adequate coolant. |
| Inadequate consideration of thermal expansion during welding or assembly. | Account for Aluminum 6061's coefficient of thermal expansion by implementing proper joint design, preheating if necessary, and controlled cooling to prevent distortion. |
