When the material passes through the sliding frame, the contact block 3 will be pressed into the contact groove 11. When the contact block 3 is pressed down, it will drive the transmission component 4 to move downward. At this time, the position detection unit 5 will detect the displacement signal of the transmission component 4 to determine whether the material has completed the loading action. After that, the position detection unit 5 will continue to count the length of the material to feedback the cutting machine to perform the cutting task; when the end of the material is completely separated from the bottom of the sliding frame 1, the contact block 3 will adaptively reset in the absence of force, and drive the transmission component 4 to reset.
