Simple & Elegant Vcarving

The Vcarve Suite is a set of tool add-ons for Designer that expands the vcarving capabilities of the software. Vcarving uses the 60° and 90° V-bits to plunge and shape. It includes centerline text, conforming vectors, vector groups, and edit outline.

Vcarve Suite

Vector Groups

The Vector Group tool allows vector drawings to be carved with a V-bit as centerline chip carved effect, or as a pocket group. A pocket group allows you to define a boundary bit for the edge with a chosen depth and then a pocket bit to route the interior region as a vector route.
Vector Groups

SELECT CLOSED VECTORS

Select all vectors desired for the design and select the Vector Group icon.

Vcarve Select

CHOOSE AREAS

Using the selection options, choose a boundary V-bit to v-carve or define a depth and select a pocket bit make a pocket group.

THE FINISHED EFFECT

The software will render the vector group as you have defined it. That's it, you're ready.

Centerline Text

The Centerline Text feature adds an additional Rout Mode in the Text Tool feature. This feature uses the 60° and 90° V-groove bits to follow the center of the letters for a clean engraved, v-cut look. The depth of the centerline is determined by the width of the text selected.

Centerline Text is fast

FASTER TEXT CARVING

The Centerline rout mode takes a fraction of the time to carve as in the standard raster mode. In some cases, minutes instead of hours.

 
Centerline text can carve small

CARVE SMALLER TEXT

Carving text in the other modes limit how small you can get with it. Centerline allows for much smaller text for those trickier engraving projects.

PLEASING LOOK

The uniquely pleasing aesthetic affect of Centerline compared with the other text modes makes it a dynamic addition to your text carving tools.

Conforming Vectors

Conforming vectors allow for v-bit routing along a carved surface. Without Conforming Vectors, these types of routs can only be made on the flat, top surface of the board.

Conform Vector

CHECK THE CONFORM BOX

Select the vector you wish to conform, and check the conform box to apply the effect. You can conform over textures, domes, patterns, and regions.

Conform Text

CONFORM VECTOR TEXT

Any vector rout can be conformed including centerline or outline text.

Conform Vcarve

CONFORM VECTOR ROUTS

It’s not limited to just v-carving, but can be used with any of the vector bits.

Edit Outlines

Designer is equipped with a powerful auto-trace tool called outline pattern, but sometimes you may want to edit those outlines. The edit outline tool converts those outlines into an editable vector. This tool also converts text to editable outlines so they can be used with Vector Groups.

OUTLINE PATTERN

The standard outline pattern produces a great tracing result.

Edit Outline

EDIT OUTLINE

With Edit Outline, Outlines or Text become a node based vector for any editing desired.
