dxf

Hi everyone, I’m working on a project where I need to engrave the same box divider part with multiple different logos. The goal is to create identical parts, each with a different logo applied. All the logos have the same bounding dimensions, and their placement on the part will be consistent. Is there a way to automate…

I am trying to export a dxf file of this tube to be cut on my tube cutting attachment on my CNC plasma cutter. There is no option for this that I have found. How are people taking componets they have built in the frame generator and exporting them in a DXF file format to be cut on rotary plasma or laser equipment?

Now, I can't insert DXF. Please Help

I'm creating a design for laser cutting fabrication. I'm usually exporting a surface face to DXF, which works great. For a certain cut, I wanted to use a sketch, as it efficiently produces the dxf to cut multiple faces together that aren't on a shared face, but a shared sketch. I found that the dxf file had two layers,…

I've used vector software to draw the base of some precise shapes - however when I want to extrude/add/modify etc on this, it turns out circles from DXF aren't really circles in onshape? I cannot snap to the center of them, and I cannot check the measures, it will only show the length - the circle selected is Ø5mm, so it…

Hi, im trying to import DXF drawings from Inkscape. I have the one Inkscape file that I copy parts to be exported to DXF and export them separately. One is imported just well enough to produce faces to extrude, while the other is failing to do that. Moreover, when importing failing drawing, any modifications done in the…

I am wanting to get a part laser cut. I set my units to mm, dimensioned a major length to 76mm, and exported a sketch as a DXF for laser cutting but the company receiving the file found the scale to be incorrect with the 76mm length being ~3mm. How can I ensure I'm exporting the same scale as what is showing in the…

So I'm asking this question to see if I can improve my work flow for laser cutting manufacturing. This question is for those who work with laser cutting, waterjet cutting, or any manufacturing process where you need to organize a story board of DXF files. Currently my process is to export any part I need as a DXF file.…

So I have ALWAYS had trouble importing DXF files...I know this topic is endlessly asked and answered. I have read the forums. I have follow the directions exactly. I CAN NEVER GET THIS FEATURE TO WORK! I have used CorelDraw SVG software to complete a vector trace of a logo (i.e. batman)...exported outline as a .DXF (in…

Hi, I am looking to use the API to hook up a python script to optimize some electric motor geometry. I need to run some simulations on a 2D DXF output of the geometry. How can I use the API to export a sketch to .DXF? I found some endpoints that facilitate STL and Parasolid export, and I found some stuff to do with…
