A processing sketch cleaning dense vector files to be lasercut. Also does some handy calculations.

I have a fractal made of thousands of single lines. Cleaning it in regular software is a pain in the ass so I made this script; it might also be useful for you!

##The script:

  • Loads .svg and exports .pdf
  • Crops lines to the canvas/artboard size.
  • Computes all lines and can guess laser cutter speed and power depending on previous results.
  • Zones with too much laser passages become holes. A treshold value lets you preview these holes.
  • Another option remove parts of lines to prevent holes from appearing.

Note: Dirty code, I didn't clean up anything.
