Image to
DXF Converter

Turn any image into a clean DXF vector file — ready for CNC, laser cutting, or CAD import

Load a photo or scan of any physical item, adjust the edge detection threshold and path simplification to taste, and export a scaled DXF in seconds. Supply real-world dimensions to get millimetre-accurate output directly from your image.

Key Features

🖼️

Live Contour Preview

See detected edges update in real time as you move the sliders — no guesswork, no re-running the process.

⚙️

Threshold & Simplify Controls

Fine-tune edge detection sensitivity and path smoothing independently. Export everything from ultra-fine detail to clean simplified CNC paths.

📐

Real-World Scaling

Enter the physical width and/or height of the item in millimetres and the DXF is scaled accordingly — no manual coordinate fudging in CAD.

How It Works

  1. 1

    Crop your image

    Before importing, crop the image to isolate only the relevant section. Removing background clutter gives the edge detection cleaner data to work with.

  2. 2

    Tune the controls

    Drag Threshold to set how dark an edge must be to be detected. Drag Simplify to control how aggressively the path is smoothed. The contour preview updates live.

  3. 3

    Set real-world dimensions (optional)

    Enter the width and/or height of the actual item in millimetres to scale the DXF output accurately.

  4. 4

    Generate & export

    Click Generate DXF and save the file. Open it directly in your CAD package, laser cutter software, or CNC toolchain.
