| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using inadequate coolant during machining, leading to tool wear and poor surface finish. | Employ a flood coolant system with a lubricant specifically designed for aluminum machining to maintain optimal cutting temperatures and chip evacuation. |
| Overlooking material stress relieving after significant forming or welding operations. | Implement appropriate stress-relieving heat treatments if the component undergoes substantial deformation or welding to prevent warping and ensure dimensional stability. |
