As of May 2025, the CNC industry is ushering in a series of technological breakthroughs and industrial upgrades, especially in the fields of artificial intelligence, intelligent manufacturing and new energy applications.
Huazhong CNC releases the world's first new generation intelligent CNC system "Huazhong Type 10"
On April 21, 2025, at the 19th China International Machine Tool Exhibition, Wuhan Huazhong CNC Co., Ltd. officially released the world's first new generation intelligent CNC system-"Huazhong Type 10". The system integrates AI chips and large language models, and has autonomous perception, learning, decision-making and execution capabilities, marking that Our country's industrial mother machine industry has entered the "intelligent generation" from the "CNC generation". This breakthrough is expected to trigger a historic change in the industrial mother machine manufacturing industry.
The machining center market continues to grow, driven by policies and demand
According to industry analysis, the machining center market is expected to maintain steady growth from 2024 to 2025. The government's high attention and strong support for the manufacturing industry provide a strong policy guarantee for the machining center industry. At the same time, the demand for machining centers in high-end manufacturing fields such as automobiles, aerospace, and electronics continues to grow, driving the industry to develop in the direction of high-end, intelligent, and green.
New Energy Vehicle Parts Processing Technology Innovation Conference was held in Hefei
From March 13 to 15, 2025, the "Automotive Parts Processing Technology and CNC Machine Tools in the New Energy Field Technology Innovation Conference" was held at the same time as the Second Hefei International Machine Tool Exhibition. The conference focused on the latest processing technologies in multiple fields such as drive motors, power batteries, and automotive molds, bringing together industry experts, scholars, and corporate representatives to discuss related issues and provide a beneficial communication platform for industry development.
Artificial intelligence assists CNC programming: GLLM and Draw2Cut systems debut
In early 2025, researchers launched the GLLM system, which uses a large language model to automatically generate the G code required for CNC processing, simplifying the programming process and lowering the technical threshold. At the same time, the Draw2Cut system allows users to draw designs directly on materials, convert hand-drawn patterns into processing paths through custom drawing languages, and enable non-professional users to easily perform personalized processing.
Overall, the CNC industry in 2025 is at a critical stage of technological innovation and industrial upgrading. The deep integration of artificial intelligence, strong policy support, and continued growth in market demand are jointly driving CNC technology to a higher level. In the future, the CNC industry will play a more important role in the fields of intelligent manufacturing and high-end equipment manufacturing.
