Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using incorrect cutting tools or speeds, leading to rough edges or material deformation.Employ a high-quality carbide-tipped blade designed for aluminum cutting and adhere to manufacturer-recommended speed and feed parameters to achieve clean, precise cuts.
Inadequate clamping of the stock sheet, resulting in vibration and inaccurate cuts.Ensure the sheet is firmly secured with appropriate clamps or a jig along the entire cutting path to prevent movement and ensure dimensional accuracy.

Common Applications

  • Aerospace components
  • Marine structures and fittings
  • Automotive chassis and body panels
