SVG for Bambu Lab
Turn any image into a file your Bambu Lab will actually take, sized for its work area.
What this machine needs
- Work area
- 256 x 256 mm (10.1 x 10.1 in)
- Software
- Bambu Studio
- Formats it imports
- STL, 3MF, STEP
- Units to export in
- Millimetres
A flat vector becomes a printable part by extrusion, so pick a depth as well as a size.
Work areas vary between revisions and accessories. Confirm against your own machine before cutting.

Drop several files at once to convert the whole folder in one pass.
× removes a colour and its shapes; click a swatch to change it. Every format follows.
Batch
Every file is traced on its own at its own resolution, with the settings in the panel. A file converted here comes out identical to the same file converted by itself.

See it on your product
Put this artwork on a 3D mug, tumbler, sign, phone case or canvas, turn it all the way round, or drop it onto a photograph of your own blank. The preview page has the product picker, the colours and the placement controls.

Trace settings
Full-colour trace for print and web.
Fine-tune
Raise it to clear dust, grain and stray dots; 0 keeps every mark.
Untick for pixel art: the outline then follows every pixel edge.
With Remove background: how close a colour must be to the background to go with it.
Machine output
Height follows the source aspect ratio.
Laser and Router follow the traced outlines. Engrave photo burns the picture itself, line by line, for photos and portraits.
Heat transfer vinyl is pressed face down, so it has to be cut mirrored. The second box is the overcut in millimetres: a drag knife starts each shape pointing the wrong way, and running past the start covers that stretch properly so the piece weeds out clean.
Beam or bit width. Left at zero the tool runs down the centre of the line, so a part finishes one tool width undersize. Set it and the path is offset by half, with holes offset the opposite way.
Holes before the part that holds them, so nothing comes loose while there is still cutting to do. Also shortens the travel between cuts.
Optimise
PNG is always lossless and full resolution.
Getting the size right
Set the output width in the panel and the file carries real units, not pixels. A design that fits 256 x 256 mm (10.1 x 10.1 in) will load without rescaling, and rescaling after export is where parts come out wrong.
For this machine, 205mm is a sensible starting width, about 80 percent of the work area, which leaves room for clamping and for the difference between the stated size and the usable one.
Questions
Will this file open in Bambu Studio?
The output is STL and 3MF, which Bambu Studio imports directly. Preview it here first so you know what you are loading.
What size should I export at?
Anything up to 256 x 256 mm (10.1 x 10.1 in). Set the width before downloading rather than scaling afterwards, because scaling a machine file after export is what puts parts out of true.
Is anything uploaded?
No. The conversion runs in your browser, so the artwork never leaves your machine.
