Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard steel cutting tools which can cause excessive heat and material deformation.Employ specialized aluminum cutting tools and techniques to maintain material integrity and prevent thermal damage.
Neglecting to deburr edges, leading to potential downstream particle generation within the filtering system.Thoroughly deburr all cut edges using appropriate files or deburring tools to ensure a smooth, particle-free surface.

Common Applications
