In order to improve the production in the shipbuilding industry, the first phases of construction have a significant role on the production process, namely the steel cutting. This steel process stage represents a key factor of the optimization of the production process, because the implementation of new and more accurate technologies can generate an important reduction of the re-work due to the steel deformation and other consequences. The study of the various cutting technologies is essential to prove the advantages of the newest and more advanced cutting processes, such as the plasma, the laser or the water abrasive jet. The present paper aims to present a case study of two different cutting processes, oxy-fuel and plasma cutting. Although all the cutting parameters were not studied such as consumables rates for example, this study concerns the practical situations during the cutting processes on the steel process shop, i.e. speed of the cutting process, man-hours needed or problems that can occur during the cutting process.
