Cutting machines are used in the metal and non-metal industries. Generally speaking, the non-metal industries are more detailed, such as stone cutting machines for cutting stone, water jetting machines, serrated cutting machines, cutting cloth and plastics, and laser cutting for chemical fiber products. Cutting machine, blade type cutting machine, cutting metal materials include flame cutting machine, plasma cutting machine, the flame cutting machine is divided into two categories: CNC cutting machine, and manual. The manual category includes, small sports car, semi-automatic, pure manual , CNC has, gantry CNC cutting machine, cantilever CNC cutting machine, desktop CNC cutting machine, intersecting line CNC cutting machine and so on.
The laser cutting machine is the most expensive, high-tech cutting equipment with the highest accuracy and efficiency. The waterjet cutting machine is the second, the flame cutting machine is also relatively low cost, and the plasma cutting machine has the lowest cost (per piece calculation).
Generally speaking, CNC flame and plasma cutting machines control a large number of users. In the future, fine plasma and laser cutting will replace the former and become the mainstream cutting machine because of their environmental protection, high cutting speed and good cutting quality.
