| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using incorrect welding parameters for Aluminum 6061, leading to porosity or compromised joint strength. | Consult welding procedure specifications (WPS) tailored for 6061-T6 aluminum, utilizing appropriate filler metals (e.g., 4043 or 5356) and gas shielding. |
| Neglecting to account for thermal expansion during fabrication, causing warping or dimensional inaccuracies. | Implement controlled heating and cooling cycles, or utilize expansion joints where significant temperature variations are expected during service. |
