Virtual Live Video Demo
Ideal for international buyers unable to travel immediately. Connect via secure high-definition video link to watch your CAD parts cut live while speaking directly to our senior machine designers.
Validation & Benchmarking
Request a CNC Machine Live Demonstration
Test cut your actual material and CAD drawings with our Nottingham application engineering team. Verify cut speed, edge squareness, and consumable costs before making your capital investment.
Engineering Precision
Benchmark Your Part Mix with UK Cutting Engineers
Investing in industrial cutting machinery requires total certainty. At Esprit Automation, we invite global steel fabricators, OEMs, and steel service centers to test their exact part geometries prior to purchasing.
Whether you choose to visit our facility in Nottingham, England, or opt for an interactive high-definition virtual live stream, our experienced application specialists will guide you through nesting optimization, cut chart selection, edge tolerance measurement, and operating cost estimates.
- Direct comparison between High-Definition Plasma, Fiber Laser, and Oxy-Fuel processes
- Real-time trial cutting using your DXF / DWG files and material specifications
- Full edge quality report detailing bevel angles, dross levels, and hole quality metrics
- Verifiable consumable cost per meter analysis calculated by our software team
4-Step Verification Process
How Our Cutting Machine Demonstration Works
Every test session is engineered to provide transparent, audit-ready data tailored for international engineering teams and commercial buyers.
1. File Submission & Audit
Provide your nested components or single part drawings. Our engineers review material thickness, tolerances, and production volume requirements.
2. CAM & Cost Modeling
We process your parts through our native nesting software to calculate precise cut times, gas consumption rates, and wear-part longevity.
3. Live Machine Cutting
Observe the cut in person at our Nottingham works or via multi-angle HD streaming. Evaluate gantry acceleration, arc stability, and downdraft fume extraction.
4. Sample Inspection & Report
Review the cut parts. We dispatch cut samples directly to your international address alongside comprehensive technical recommendations.
Flexible Evaluation
Tailored Options for Overseas & Local Procurement
We accommodate global procurement managers and structural engineering teams across all time zones with flexible demonstration channels.
Factory Visit & Workshop Audit
Tour our Nottingham manufacturing facility, audit our gantry machining center, observe electrical panel assembly, and inspect live cutting across plasma, laser, and flame platforms.
Sample Part Postal Verification
Send us your drawing files and material specs. We will cut sample parts using recommended Hypertherm plasma or fiber laser power sources and express courier them directly to your facility.

Preparation Checklist
What to Prepare for Your Test Session
To ensure maximum value from your live cutting demonstration, our technical team recommends assembling the following information:
- DXF / DWG CAD Files: Representative production parts with typical hole diameters and cut profiles.
- Material Grade & Surface Condition: Mild steel, stainless steel, or aluminium thickness and sheet mill finish.
- Production Volumes: Weekly batch sizes to benchmark realistic consumable life and cut cycle speed.
- Tolerance Expectations: Specific dimensional requirements for secondary assembly or welding.
