COMPATABILITY

What file formats will I receive?

With every purchase you will gain download access to each format of the design file - RLF9, RLF and STL files - of the model you purchased.

To test compatibility with your design software, we strongly recommend downloading our choice of Free Monthly Models.

What software can open CNC Clipart files?

We have actively tested the files in Carveco Maker and Carveco Maker Plus, Vectric V-Carve Pro and Vectric Aspire, Mastercam, Fusion 360 and Rhino, but any software that opens STL files will be able to open our file formats.

We have created a series of tutorials to guide you through importing our models into your preferred software.

What is a Relief Model?

A Relief (or 'Bas-Relief' as it's also known) is a 3D artistic design on a 2D plane. Relief models have less height than traditional 3D designs, that allow them to be viewed from a wide angle. A good example of a Relief model is the face of a coin. When viewed face-on you can see all the artistic detail, but viewed from the side - the height of the design is very shallow.

Are Relief Models 'Full 3D'?

Not in the traditional sense. Although Relief Models are 3D models, and as such can be printed on 3D printers etc, Relief Models will have a flat rear face or open back. This is what makes them ideal for machining on 3-Axis routers.

Are the models compatible with CNC's and 3D printers?

The models on this site are specifically designed to work with CNC machines and contain no undercuts. The models are also suitable for use on 3D printers but they may have to be made watertight before use as they typically have an open rear-face.

Can individual relief models be broken up into their different design elements?

No. All CNC Clipart relief models are what's commonly referred to as 'Baked in' artwork. Put simply, this means that a relief model with multiple design elements, is one complete 3D relief model.
