| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using incorrect cutting tools or speeds, leading to poor edge quality. | Utilize sharp, high-quality cutting tools designed for aluminum and adhere to recommended feed rates and speeds for 6061 alloy to achieve clean cuts and minimize burring. |
| Neglecting to consider thermal expansion in design, especially in temperature-critical applications. | Account for Aluminum 6061's coefficient of thermal expansion (approximately 23.0 µm/m°C) during the design phase to prevent stress-related failures due to temperature fluctuations. |
