eCut 7.4 for CorelDRAW – Cutting

eCut 7.4 for CorelDRAW – Software Overview

eCut 7.4 is a powerful CorelDRAW plugin designed for signmaking, vinyl plotting, CNC routing, and laser cutting workflows. It includes nesting, contour cutting, LED layout tools, cost calculation, and workflow automation to streamline production.

Installed directly inside CorelDRAW, eCut enables quick file preparation, optimized material usage, and clean toolpath creation for professional cutting environments.

Key Features

• Advanced nesting for maximum material efficiency.
• Contour cutting tools for vinyl plotters, lasers, and CNC machines.
• LED layout calculation for illuminated signage.
• Cost calculator for materials, machine time, and labor.
• Kerf and offset compensation for precise cutting.
• Batch exporting for production workflows.
• Support for CNC routers & plotters using standard file formats.

Compatible Devices & Workflows

• Vinyl plotters: Roland, Graphtec, Summa, Mimaki.
• Lasers: CO2 and fiber cutters via vector export.
• CNC routers: compatible with G-Code workflows.
• LED signage: pixel mapping and spacing tools included.
• General CorelDRAW production with seamless design-to-cut integration.

How It Works

Install eCut as a CorelDRAW extension, then access all tools directly inside your workspace. Create nests, contour cuts, offsets, LED maps, cost estimates, and export to plotters, CNC machines, or laser cutters with optimized paths.

eCut automates repetitive production tasks, simplifying paneling, scaling, compensation, and toolpath preparation.

Options & Settings

• Nesting rules: rotation, spacing, grain direction.
• Contour offsets for inner/outer kerf adjustments.
• LED layout controls: pitch, module size, placement.
• Cost presets: material pricing, machine rates, labor time.
• Batch tools for multi-file export and job automation.

Benefits

• Faster production setup.
• Reduced material waste through optimized nesting.
• Precise cuts with kerf-aware offsets.
• Full LED and signmaking workflows built-in.
• 100% integrated inside CorelDRAW.
