| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using incorrect cutting tools, leading to burrs and material stress. | Employ sharp, high-quality cutting tools specifically designed for aluminum alloys, and ensure proper feed rates and speeds to minimize heat buildup and stress. |
| Overlooking material thermal expansion during assembly in varying temperature environments. | Account for Aluminum 6061's coefficient of thermal expansion in design calculations to prevent stress or component failure due to temperature fluctuations. |
