MATERIAL PLANNING

Arrange SVG parts on your material sheet

Set your sheet size, safe edge margin and spacing. Review a clear local layout before downloading one SVG sheet per result.

▤

Drop SVG files or one ZIP project here

Choisissez un ou plusieurs fichiers SVG, ou un ZIP contenant des fichiers SVG de découpe. Vous choisirez le projet avant toute modification. Exportez d’abord CDR, DXF, EPS, AI et DWG en SVG, puis importez le ZIP d’un seul projet, pas une bibliothèque complète.

How to use

Keep the material visible and the decisions under your control

1

Upload a prepared SVG

Use an SVG where each cut part is a top-level group or shape. A single editor layer containing grouped parts is also supported. Keep a clean original copy before preparing a layout.

2

Set the physical rules

Choose A4, A3 or a custom sheet. Enter the actual safe margin and gap that suit your material and process. If the SVG is one product set, enter how many sets you need to manufacture.

3

Inspect, then export

Review each calculated sheet, including part direction and gaps. Download separate SVG sheets only after a visual check.

Before you start

What this tool does

  1. It detects top-level SVG groups or shapes, plus groups inside one top-level editor layer, then measures their visible bounding rectangles.
  2. It creates one or more material sheets using your size, outer margin, gap, requested number of complete sets and optional 90-degree rotation.
  3. It shows the result as a material-sheet preview and exports copies; your source SVG is never changed.
  4. It uses a fast rectangle-first layout. It deliberately does not pretend to perform contour nesting: a shape is never placed inside another part’s hole or empty area.

Questions and answers

Before you export

Does this control my laser or CNC machine?

No. It only prepares SVG layout files. Set the machine operation, speed, power and safety controls in your production software.

Can I rotate every part?

Only allow rotation when it is safe for your material and design. Grain, text, mirrored pieces and visible surfaces can require a fixed direction.

What does “Sets to make” mean?

If your SVG contains every part for one finished item, enter the number of identical finished items you need. The tool repeats every detected part that many times and shows how many sheets are required.

Why did my ready-made sheet appear as one part?

Many laser-design exports contain every cut line inside one composite group or a pre-arranged A4 page. The tool preserves that structure rather than guessing which lines belong to each object. It can repeat that full design; to nest separate pieces, export each cut piece as its own top-level SVG group first.

Why are parts shown with colour?

Colour makes the individual parts easier to inspect. Holes and empty areas remain empty, so the material and cut spaces are easier to understand.

Plan the cut before you switch on the machine

Use the layout to check the sheet size, safe edge margin, spacing and number of sets from a real SVG. Review each sheet first, adjust individual parts only when needed, then make a test cut. Your source SVG stays on your device and is never changed.
