Cut File Best Practices

  • File Type - All files must be .dxf format. This is a widely used export option for most CAD programs.
  • Scale - Parts should be in a (1:1) scale, meaning they are already the correct size you would like your cut parts to be.
  • Units - Your design should be in either inches or mm. Make sure you select the correct option on the quotation form.
  • File Details - All shapes should be closed with no overlapping cut lines. Cut-lines should be the only existing component within the file; do not include seam-allowances or guide lines within.

This can depend on a few different factors. However, in general, we have a maximum cutting width of 55" (1400mm) and virtually unlimited restrictions on length as our laser operates with a conveyor belt.

But this is also dependent on the material we are cutting from. If your fabric is 50", the maximum width will be 48", 2" less the fabric width. This ensures proper part placement and sufficient room for cutting.

It is important to consider the warp and weft of fabric when designing your files. Warp = Length and Weft = Width. If your pattern pieces need to be arranged in a specific orientation, we will need to know, as it could affect fabric usage and increase costs.

Depending on your application, you may want to cut parts a certain way to take advantage of unique properties of the material.
