| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using standard carbon steel cutting tools without coolant on aluminum. | Employ high-speed steel or carbide tooling designed for aluminum and utilize a suitable cutting fluid or mist to prevent chip welding and improve surface finish. |
| Overheating the material during cutting, leading to annealing and reduced strength. | Maintain appropriate cutting speeds and feed rates, and use adequate lubrication and cooling to dissipate heat effectively. |
