Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using incorrect cutting tools leading to material deformation or poor edge quality.Employ high-quality, sharp cutting tools specifically designed for aluminum, such as a carbide-tipped saw blade or a specialized metal shear.
Neglecting to deburr cut edges, creating safety hazards and potential for stress risers.Always use a deburring tool or a file to smooth all cut edges, removing any sharp fragments or burrs.
