Though the CNC (Computer Numerical Control) plasma cutters had been established in the early 1980’s, it was not until the past decade the cutting became popular. It was because of the non–affordability this valuable cutting process didn’t reap success. The roughness seen in the manually cut pieces can be avoided by using this cutter as the machine uses a computer to design the shapes and also to control the cutting machines. Recent development has lead to the invention of vertical CNC cutting tables along with the horizontal ones. In future to develop more precision in cutting, researchers have combined new models with CNC cutting proving that the future of plasma cutters starts with CNC plasma cutting.
