The invention relates to the technical field of stamping machines, in particular to an automatic detection plate replacement presetting system used for a stamping machine and an application method of the automatic detection plate replacement presetting system. An automatic plate replacement presetting system, namely, the automatic detection plate replacement presetting system, can store parameters of all produced products in the device, wherein the parameters include the preloader position, the feeder position, the front layer and lay gauge positions, the stamping pressure, the automatic foil feeding length, the temperature parameter, the paper collection position and the like. When plate replacement and order change are conducted through the device, a program can drive a servo motor to conduct positioning according to the data stored before by only calling the document number, stored before, of a corresponding product, a heating system automatically conducts heating, a projection system of a main machine part can project the position of a current product plate to a die-cutting plate frame or a cellular board, and an operator only needs to regulate and lock the plate according to the cursor line. Rapid and accurate plate alignment is achieved, and the plate arranging time is shortened by 80%; for various short plate products, rapid delivery can be achieved, the production efficiency can be greatly improved, labor can be saved, and the comprehensive cost can be reduced.
