Draw a part on paper. Scan it with your phone. Open it in CutArc, ready to cut. CutArc Connect is the pocket companion to CutArc, the browser-based CAD/CAM for CNC plasma cutting. It puts the two things a fabricator actually needs on the shop floor — capturing real-world shapes and quick reference — right in your pocket, with everything synced to your CutArc account. SCAN ANYTHING INTO A CUT FILE — Point the scanner at a sketch, a template, or a part lying on the bench. Automatic edge detection, perspective correction, and shadow removal turn a phone photo into clean vector geometry — then trace it on-device or with CutArc's cloud tracer and save it straight to your projects. TYPE A SIGN — Pick a stencil font, type a name, and preview a cut-ready sign design in seconds. Made for the "can you cut me one with my name on it?" moment. DESCRIBE IT, GET GEOMETRY — AI design generation turns a text description into plasma-ready vector art. Free accounts include weekly generations. YOUR SHOP'S REFERENCE CARD — Cut charts for common materials and thicknesses — amperage, feed rate, kerf — without walking back to the office computer. ONE ACCOUNT, EVERY SCREEN — Everything you capture or design on your phone appears in your CutArc projects, ready to open in the web designer or the CutArc desktop app for nesting, kerf compensation, and G-code. Sign in with Apple, Google, or email — or create a free account right in the app. BROWSE THE DESIGN LIBRARY — Ready-to-cut designs, searchable by category, saved to your projects in a tap. CutArc supports 12+ plasma table controllers including Mach3, LinuxCNC, GRBL, Langmuir FireControl, and Hypertherm — design on your phone, cut from your table.
