The plasma cutting technique best known for its simplicity and ability to cut virtually any metal. This technique is present in most industries, with the passage of time has undergone technological improvements that allow cutting with better quality and greater productivity, so the importance of an automated system to efficiently and safely perform this homework. This article shows how the automation of a plasma cutting table was carried out using the Motion development platform and the LabVIEW graphic programming language from National Instruments. The interface that was developed provides the necessary tools so that the user can automatically make cuts of different materials for the manufacture of mechanical parts. With this improvement, the risk of accidents involved in the process itself is reduced, guaranteeing good operation and safety measures during its operation. Additionally, visual signs were integrated that allow to know the operation and operation status of the table, as well as emergency stop buttons.
