Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using incorrect cutting tools leading to material deformation or poor edge quality.Employ sharp, high-quality cutting tools specifically designed for aluminum to achieve clean cuts and preserve material integrity.
Neglecting to properly deburr edges, posing a safety hazard and potentially affecting downstream assembly.Thoroughly deburr all cut edges using a file or deburring tool to create smooth, safe surfaces.

Common Applications
