Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using the wrong cutting tool, leading to burrs and inaccurate dimensions.Employ carbide-tipped or specialized metal-cutting blades designed for brass to achieve clean, precise cuts.
Insufficient clamping during machining, causing vibration and poor surface finish.Securely clamp the brass sheet to the machine bed using appropriate fixtures to prevent movement and ensure stable cutting.
