If you take a Backstage Magic Tour at Walt Disney World, the costuming department has some kind of [magical] CNC fabric cutter that does a single layer of fabric quickly and cleanly, apparently cookie-cutter style. You see the design on an LCD screen, the operator places the fabric, the machine closes on the fabric, it makes quiet slapping sounds for a few seconds, and it opens revealing the perfectly cut piece.
You're not permitted to take photos of the machine. Textile cutting isn't my thing, so I don't know how it works, but I found it mildly interesting.
