The GraphCut Studio is the UK’s leading CNC sample cutter, a compact CNC fabric cutter designed for fashion and apparel studios, upholstery workshops, and leather manufacturers who need fast, accurate sampling without the footprint of a full production cutter.
Unlike large multi-ply production cutting machines, the GraphCut Studio is a single-ply CNC cutter for the design studio, built for agile prototyping, rapid pattern sampling, and small-run production. It fits comfortably within a compact studio, and it’s compatible with every major CAD software package on the market, with no vendor lock-in.
Whether you’re a fashion designer sampling garments, an upholstery studio producing furniture prototypes, or a leather maker cutting precise samples, the GraphCut Studio delivers the accuracy and speed your business demands. And because it cuts virtually any soft material from woven and non-woven fabrics to leather, foam, card, composites, and technical textiles, its uses reach far beyond these few examples, into any industry that needs fast, accurate single-ply sampling.
Standard Features: Every GraphCut Studio includes
- Fully equipped CNC auto cutter: ready to cut from day one.
- Tooling specified to your materials: choose from an oscillating blade, rotary-driven wheel, and notch and punch tools to handle woven fabrics, leather, card, and technical textiles configured to your needs rather than supplied as a fixed set.
- Easy tool change: swap cutting heads in seconds, no downtime.
- Cutting width of up to 176cm accommodates full-width fabric rolls.
- Compatible with all CAD software: DXF, HPGL/PLT, CorelDRAW, AutoCAD, and all major pattern cutting systems, no software lock-in.
- Three compact studio sizes; see footprints in the specifications section below.
- Single or three-phase power.
Available Options: Customise Your Oscillating Blade Fabric Cutter:
- Static or conveyorised cutting bed: static for sheet work; conveyor makes it a cutting machine for roll-fed material and suitable for long cutting markers.
- Camera gantry: the leather CNC sample cutter option: digitise unusually shaped hides or material and nest patterns without waste.
- Photo digitiser: create digital pattern files directly from paper, card, or fabric patterns. No magnets required.
- Inkjet print-and-cut: print and cut fabric, paper or card patterns in a single pass. Ideal for sample rooms needing fast turnaround on print-to-pattern workflows.

Who Is the GraphCut Studio CNC Sample Cutter For?
Fashion & Apparel Studios
The GraphCut Studio is the ideal CNC cutter for sampling fashion, built for designers and apparel sample rooms who need to produce garment samples quickly and precisely. It replaces time-consuming manual cutting, eliminates errors on curved seam lines and notches, and works directly from your CAD pattern files, cutting fabric samples in a fraction of the time. Whether you’re sampling jersey, woven shirting, technical outerwear, or delicate silks, the GraphCut Studio handles every fabric type with consistent, repeatable accuracy.
Upholstery & Furniture Manufacturers
For upholstery workshops and furniture manufacturers, the GraphCut Studio is a compact single-ply cutting machine that handles fabric, leather and faux leather, foam-backed textiles, and vinyl with ease. The optional camera gantry and conveyor bed make it a genuine production-ready upholstery sample cutting machine, allowing your team to prototype new seat covers, cushion panels, and sofa fabrics in the design studio before committing to a full production run.
Leather Goods & Accessories
The GraphCut Studio doubles as a leather CNC sample cutter for small-batch and bespoke production. With the optional camera gantry, your operator can manually nest pattern pieces onto irregular hides, reducing leather waste and maximising material yield. Ideal for handbag manufacturers, footwear designers, bags, and automotive interior specialists.
Technical Textiles & Small Manufacturers
The GraphCut Studio is one of the most versatile CNC fabric cutters for small businesses available in the UK. If your business cuts composites, technical textiles, card, foam, or non-woven materials and you need a machine that delivers precision without requiring dedicated cutting-room space, the GraphCut Studio is the right choice. Supported by VetiGraph’s UK-based service team in Leicester, with technical support included.
Why Choose the GraphCut Studio from VetiGraph?
VetiGraph has been supplying CAD/CAM cutting solutions to UK manufacturers since 1984. The GraphCut Studio is a compact CNC fabric cutter and the UK’s go-to CNC fabric cutter for small businesses. The product of four decades of knowledge about what design studios and sample rooms actually need from a cutting machine, and what they don’t.
Universal CAD Compatibility
Unlike some competitors whose machines are locked to proprietary software, the GraphCut Studio works with every major CAD platform: DXF, HPGL, CorelDRAW, AutoCAD, and all industry pattern cutting tools. Your existing software investment is fully protected.
Print and Cut in One Pass
With the optional inkjet plotter, the GraphCut Studio can print and cut fabric or paper patterns simultaneously, a capability that most compact studio cutters simply don’t offer. This dramatically speeds up your sampling workflow and reduces handling time between print and cut stages.
No-Magnet Pattern Digitising
The optional photo digitiser allows your team to create digital files directly from existing paper or card patterns, no magnets needed. This makes the transition from manual to digital pattern cutting fast and cost-effective, even if you have an existing paper pattern library.
UK-Based Support & Live Demonstrations
Every GraphCut Studio purchase includes full installation, staff training, and technical support from VetiGraph’s UK teams in Leicester. Before you commit, we can arrange a live factory demonstration and cut samples of your own material so you can see the machine’s performance with your exact fabrics.
Frequently Asked Questions: GraphCut Studio CNC Sample Cutter
What is a studio CNC sample cutter and how does it differ from a production cutter?
A studio CNC sample cutter is a compact, single-ply to low-ply CNC cutter for the design studio. Designed for rapid prototyping and small-run fabric, leather or card cutting. Unlike large multi-ply production cutters built for high-volume output, a studio cutter like the GraphCut Studio is sized for a design studio environment it needs less space, less power, and produces the precise, individual cuts needed for sample-making and pattern development rather than mass production.
What materials can the GraphCut Studio CNC cutter cut?
The GraphCut Studio handles a wide range of materials including woven and non-woven fabrics, leather and faux leather, card, paper, composites, and technical textiles. With an oscillating blade for fabric and leather, a rotary-driven wheel for lighter weight materials, and optional notch and punch tools, it covers virtually every cutting requirement in a fashion or upholstery studio.
Is the GraphCut Studio compatible with my existing CAD software?
Yes. The GraphCut Studio is compatible with all major CAD and pattern cutting software, including DXF files, HPGL/PLT files, CorelDRAW, AutoCAD, and VetiGraph’s own pattern cutting and grading software. Unlike some cutting machines tied to proprietary software, the GraphCut Studio has no vendor lock-in; it works with whatever CAD tools your studio already uses.
How much space does the GraphCut Studio require in my studio?
The GraphCut Studio is available in four sizes. The smallest requires a studio footprint of just 2.2m × 1.85m, making it one of the most space-efficient fabric sample cutting machines available in the UK. The largest model requires 3m × 2.1m. All four fit comfortably within most design studio and workshop environments. Custom sizes can be built to order.
Can the GraphCut Studio cut leather as well as fabric?
Yes. With the optional camera gantry, the GraphCut Studio functions as a leather CNC sample or small run cutter, allowing your operator to manually nest pattern pieces onto irregular leather hides and cut with precision, minimising waste. It is used by leather goods manufacturers, footwear designers, and automotive interior specialists across the UK.
Can I see the GraphCut Studio demonstrated before purchasing?
Yes. VetiGraph can arrange a live demonstration of the GraphCut Studio CNC sample cutter in a working UK factory. We can also cut samples of your own fabric or leather material so you can evaluate the machine’s performance with your exact material before making a decision. Contact our team to arrange a free demonstration.
Is the GraphCut Studio suitable for a small business or start-up studio?
Absolutely. The GraphCut Studio is a CNC fabric cutter for small businesses, independent designers, and growing studios. Its compact footprint, universal CAD compatibility, and single-phase power supply make it a practical first automatic CNC cutting machine for studios moving from manual pattern cutting to digital automation. VetiGraph also provides full installation, training, and UK technical support.
