Why Your Snapmaker Needs Clean SVG Files
The Snapmaker is the ultimate maker's Swiss Army knife - one machine that laser engraves, CNC carves, and 3D prints. This versatility means your SVG files need to be clean and precise to work across all three fabrication modes without issues.
With VectoSolve, you can convert any image into a multi-purpose SVG that works flawlessly in Snapmaker's Luban software. Use the same SVG to laser engrave a wooden sign, CNC carve a relief panel, or extrude it into a 3D-printable object. Clean vector paths mean fewer errors and better results across every mode.

Best Materials for Snapmaker SVG Projects
Three fabrication modes unlock endless material possibilities
Basswood & Plywood
The go-to laser material for signs, ornaments, coasters, and decorative panels. Cuts cleanly up to 8mm on the 10W laser module.
Acrylic (Laser)
Clear and colored acrylic for LED signs, keychains, earrings, and display pieces. Laser cuts give polished, professional edges.
Hardwood (CNC)
Walnut, cherry, maple, and oak for relief carvings, inlays, signs, and furniture accents using the CNC carving module.
Aluminum (CNC)
Soft aluminum for custom panels, enclosures, brackets, and decorative metalwork with the CNC module.
Leather
Genuine and faux leather for wallets, journal covers, keychains, and personalized gifts using the laser module.
MDF
Medium-density fiberboard for prototyping, stencils, templates, and decorative panels. Cuts and engraves cleanly on laser.
Snapmaker SVG FAQ
Can the Snapmaker use SVG files for all three modes?
Yes! Snapmaker's Luban software accepts SVG files for laser engraving, laser cutting, and CNC carving. For 3D printing, SVG files can be extruded into 3D models. VectoSolve creates clean SVGs that work across all three modes.
How do I import SVG files into Snapmaker Luban?
Open Luban, select your mode (Laser or CNC), and click import to load your SVG. Luban displays the paths and lets you configure speed, power, and tool settings. VectoSolve SVGs import cleanly with no broken paths.
What can the 10W laser module do with SVG files?
The 10W laser module can engrave on wood, leather, acrylic, and many other materials. It also cuts through basswood and plywood up to 8mm, and acrylic up to 5mm. VectoSolve SVGs are optimized for both engraving and cutting.
Can I CNC carve SVG designs on my Snapmaker?
Absolutely! The CNC module uses SVG files to generate toolpaths for carving wood, aluminum, acrylic, and more. VectoSolve creates SVGs with clean, closed paths that convert perfectly into CNC toolpaths in Luban.
Which Snapmaker model is best for SVG projects?
The Snapmaker Artisan offers the largest work area and most powerful modules including the 10W laser and upgraded CNC spindle. The Snapmaker 2.0 A350T is also excellent with its 320x350mm work area.
Can I convert SVGs to 3D prints on Snapmaker?
Yes! Extrude SVG designs into 3D models using Luban, Tinkercad, or Fusion 360. This is perfect for cookie cutters, stamps, stencils, and decorative objects. VectoSolve SVGs have clean closed paths that extrude smoothly.
