Free DXFfiles for laser, CNC & plasma

The lingua franca of every cutting machine. DXF is the safest choice when a file has to travel between CAD software and a machine controller. Every DXF Design Point DXF is exported as R2000 ASCII with millimetre units, closed polylines and no stray duplicates, so LightBurn, RDWorks, SheetCam, Fusion 360 and AutoCAD all read the same geometry.

DXF is the safest choice when a file has to travel between CAD software and a machine controller. Every DXF Design Point DXF is exported as R2000 ASCII with millimetre units, closed polylines and no stray duplicates, so LightBurn, RDWorks, SheetCam, Fusion 360 and AutoCAD all read the same geometry.

Cut paths live on the CUT layer, engrave and score geometry lives on SCORE. Import at 1:1, keep the layer separation, and assign your own lead-ins, kerf offset and cutting order in the CAM software rather than baking them into the drawing.

Importing without surprises

  1. 1Import at 1:1 with millimetre units. If your software asks for a DPI, use 25.4 so one unit equals one millimetre.
  2. 2Keep the CUT and SCORE layers separate and assign them different operations — through-cut and engrave.
  3. 3Apply your own kerf compensation and lead-ins in CAM. Nothing is baked into the drawing, so the same file works on a laser, a router and a plasma table.

DXF — common questions

4 answers
01What exactly do I get in the DXF download?

The lingua franca of every cutting machine. DXF is the safest choice when a file has to travel between CAD software and a machine controller. Every DXF Design Point DXF is exported as R2000 ASCII with millimetre units, closed polylines and no stray duplicates, so LightBurn, RDWorks, SheetCam, Fusion 360 and AutoCAD all read the same geometry.

02Which software opens these DXF files?

Tested with LightBurn, RDWorks, SheetCam, Fusion 360 and more. Cut paths live on the CUT layer, engrave and score geometry lives on SCORE. Import at 1:1, keep the layer separation, and assign your own lead-ins, kerf offset and cutting order in the CAM software rather than baking them into the drawing.

03Why does my import come in at the wrong size?

Almost always a unit mismatch. Our files are millimetres with a 1:1 user space; if your importer assumes 72 or 96 dpi it will scale the artwork. Set the import DPI to 25.4, or use the DXF variant which carries explicit unit metadata.

04Are all 5 designs available as DXF?

Every design on this page ships a DXF file. Designs are only listed here when the format has been generated and verified from the master geometry, so the count reflects real, downloadable files.
