In the process of mechanical processing, plate cutting is commonly used in manual cutting, semi-automatic cutting machine cutting and CNC cutting machine cutting. The manual cutting is flexible and convenient, but the manual cutting quality is poor, the size error is large, the material waste is large, the follow-up processing workload is large, at the same time, the labor conditions are bad, the production efficiency is low. Semi-automatic cutting machine in the copy cutting machine, cutting workpiece quality is better, because of its use of cutting die, is not suitable for single, small batch and large pieces of cutting. Other types of semi-automatic cutting machine although reduce the labor intensity of workers, but its function is simple, only suitable for some more regular shape parts cutting. CNC cutting compared with manual and semi-automatic cutting, can effectively improve the efficiency of plate cutting, cutting quality, reduce the labor intensity of the operator. In some small and medium-sized enterprises in our country even in some large enterprises using manual cutting and semi-automatic cutting way is more common.

The amount of steel used in Chinese mechanical industry has reached 300 million tons above, the cutting amount of steel is very large; With the development of modern machinery industry, the efficiency of plate cutting processing and product quality requirements are also improved. Therefore, the market potential of CNC cutting machine is still very large, the market prospect is more optimistic.
