VectoSolve's AI converts your designs into precise DXF/SVG files ready for CNC routing neon sign backing plates. Upload any logo, hand-drawn sketch, or digital design and get machine-ready templates in seconds. Optimized for acrylic bending guides and LED channel letter routing.

## How it works

1. **Upload your design** — Drag & drop any logo, sketch, or typography. PNG, JPG, WEBP accepted. Works with hand-drawn concepts, client logos, or script fonts. No design skills needed.
2. **AI creates CNC paths** — Our AI traces your design into clean vector outlines optimized for CNC routing. Creates precise paths for backing plate cutouts, tube bending guides, and LED channel routing.
3. **Download & route** — Get your DXF/SVG file and send directly to your CNC router. Compatible with all major CNC software: VCarve, Aspire, Mach3, ShopBot, and more. Clean vector outlines ready for your CNC workflow.

## FAQ

### Can I use VectoSolve files for CNC routing neon sign backings?
Yes! VectoSolve creates clean vector paths perfect for CNC routing acrylic or MDF backing plates. The output works with VCarve, Aspire, ShopBot, Mach3, and all major CNC software. Clean paths mean smooth cuts and precise backing plate shapes.

### Does it work for LED flex neon (not traditional glass)?
Absolutely. Whether you're working with traditional glass neon or modern LED flex neon (silicone tube), VectoSolve creates the right paths. For LED flex, the outlines serve as tube routing guides and backing plate templates.

### Can I convert a hand-drawn sketch to a neon template?
Yes! This is a common workflow for custom neon signs. Sketch your concept by hand or on a whiteboard, take a photo, upload it, and VectoSolve creates clean, CNC-ready vector paths. Perfect for client approval sketches that need to become production files.

### How do I handle script fonts with connected letters?
VectoSolve handles connected script fonts well — it traces the continuous path accurately. For neon signs, connected letters are ideal because they follow the tube path. Upload your text as an image and get a single continuous outline ready for bending.

### Can I derive backing plate and tube paths from the file?
VectoSolve outputs the design as clean vector outlines in a single layer. For production, use the outline for the backing plate cutout. For the tube bending guide, run the artwork through the Centerline preset in the Laser Workspace when it is a stroke drawing (sketch, single-line lettering): it returns one line per stroke. Filled logos are refused by that preset and not charged; for those, derive the tube line from the outline in your CAD software.

### How much does it cost?
One annual plan unlocks everything — $49/year (just $4.08/mo): 300 conversions/year with unused credits rolling over, every niche mode, all export formats, batch convert, and a commercial-use license. Try any conversion free first — you only pay when you're ready. One custom neon sign typically sells for $200-$2000 — the conversion cost is negligible.

### What CNC software is compatible?
VectoSolve DXF/SVG files work with all major CNC software: Vectric VCarve, Aspire, ShopBot, Mach3, Mach4, UCCNC, LinuxCNC, Carbide Create, and more. Standard vector formats ensure universal compatibility.

### Can I scale the design to any size?
Yes — that's the advantage of vector files. Scale your neon sign design from 12 inches to 12 feet without any quality loss. Paths stay perfectly clean at any size, so your CNC router always gets precise cut data.
