What is the Laser Cutter SVG & DXF Cleaner?
Laser and CNC cutting files rarely arrive clean: a CAD export is thousands of loose line segments with tiny gaps at the corners, a design with touching shapes has the shared edge drawn twice (so the laser cuts it twice and chars the wood), an image trace leaves specks and a thousand nodes, and the cut order is whatever order the objects happened to be drawn in. This tool reads an SVG or DXF and fixes all of that in one pass: it snaps nearby end points, merges coincident segments, traces the geometry into continuous paths, closes small gaps, removes duplicate lines and circles, drops tiny specks, optionally simplifies curves, and re-orders the cuts so inside shapes (holes) are cut before the outer contour with the shortest travel in between.
A before-and-after preview with red dots on any path that is still open shows what changed, and the statistics report cut length and laser-off travel distance before and after, the duplicates removed, gaps closed and nesting depth. Download the result as a clean SVG (choose the stroke colour and width) or a DXF. It works on straight and curved geometry, handles layers separately unless you merge them, and never uploads your file.

What you get
Loose segments become continuous paths; near points are snapped.
Duplicate lines and circles are deleted so nothing is cut twice.
Small gaps are closed; tiny shapes and noise removed.
Holes first, then outlines, with minimum laser-off travel.

Questions people ask
What counts as a duplicate?
Segments with the same two end points (after snapping) and identical circles.
Why cut inside shapes first?
So the part cannot move before its holes are cut.
Does it keep curves?
Curves are kept as polylines accurate to 0.02 mm.
Is my file uploaded?
No, processing is in your browser.
How do I use the Laser Cutter SVG & DXF Cleaner?
1. Drop in the SVG or DXF. 2. Adjust the tolerance, gap closing and speck size. 3. Check the after preview for red open ends. 4. Download the cleaned SVG or DXF.
