Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using incorrect cutting tools, leading to jagged edges or material deformation.Employ high-quality metal cutting tools specifically designed for aluminum, ensuring proper blade sharpness and feed rate.
Failing to account for material expansion/contraction due to temperature changes in precise applications.In critical applications, consider environmental temperature fluctuations and factor in appropriate allowances during design and fabrication.

Common Applications

  • Aerospace components
  • Marine hardware
  • Structural framing
