In the manufacturing of heavy - duty machinery such as construction equipment (e.g., excavators, bulldozers) and industrial presses, large base plates and frames are often required.

These components are usually made of thick steel plates. CNC flame cutting is used to cut the plates into the desired shapes and sizes.

For example, an excavator base plate may have complex cut - outs for mounting the undercarriage components and engine mounts.

The ability of flame cutting to handle thick materials (ranging from 6 mm to over 300 mm in thickness) makes it ideal for such applications.

In factories and industrial settings, there are numerous support structures like gantry cranes and large - scale conveyor systems.

The beams and columns of these structures can be cut using CNC flame cutting.

The precision of the CNC system allows for accurate cutting of angles and holes for bolted connections, ensuring the proper assembly and structural integrity of these heavy - duty support components.
