Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard cutting tools not designed for sheet metal, leading to burrs and uneven edges.Employ shears, band saws with appropriate blades, or CNC plasma/laser cutters for clean, precise cuts.
Overworking the material during bending or forming, causing premature cracking or weakening.Perform bending operations with appropriate tooling and consider annealing if significant deformation is required.
