A Comprehensive guide to selecting CutFile Templates for Gadget Skin Wrap
Starting up a skin business and wondering which cut templates to use for cutting vinyl skins. Don’t worry; we are here to guide you.
There are two main options available:
Buying mobile skin software with pre-installed cut file templates for various mobile phones
Buying individual vector cut file templates for multiple devices as per your requirement
Skin Software
The phone skin design software comes with cut file templates of various phones of different brands that are used to design custom, textured, or transparent phone skins. There are only a few software available in the market, and you can choose one per your requirements.
Vector CutFile Templates
Apart from skin design software, some companies also sell individual cut file skin templates. You can explore their digital products by visiting their website or find them simply by Google.
I have compared mobile skin design software and individual cut file templates and tried to list their major pros and cons. I have also listed a few sources which sell vector cut file templates and tried to compare them so that you can get a clear idea about each one of them.
Comparison of vector cut file of iPhone X from different sources:
I have purchased a vector cut file template of iPhone X from different sources and compared them to check their quality. I have listed my observations below:
Only RoleArtDesignStudio and VecRas were unique, as depicted by the anchor points. Rest all (ANVector, Brutal Visual Studio, DNVectors, and RYVector) had the same file. The anchor points were in the same position (as shown), which seemed quite strange and pointed toward the probability of the unauthorized sale of files after purchase or the creation of files by tracing.
The file provided by SkinTemplatePro had an incomplete shape.
Major issues:
Unnecessary margin around buttons
Short/Overlap Corner Flaps
Misalignment of Speaker and Button shapes
Extra margin around the Logo
Misalignment of Front camera and sensor shapes
Conclusion
I found that VecRas offers precise vector cut files, a world-renowned and authentic brand with global dominance in creating vinyl-ready vector skin templates and Smart PSD Mockups. You will get everything you need in one shop.
As per my observation, I have listed some key features and benefits of choosing VecRas.
Vector cut files created by VecRas are much more precise than those provided in skin software as they test their files on the original devices using 3M vinyl material and two different types of cutters. They also upload skin test images, enabling them to look at precise fit skins manufactured using their vector cut templates.
They provide templates for many phones, laptops, tablets, gaming devices, audio-video devices, wearables, etc. While skin software has the majority of cut files for phones only, other device categories are usually not offered. https://vecras.com/pages/cutfiles
Their skin templates are compatible with various popular cutters/plotters, while Skin software can only be used with the hardware supplied by that particular company. Hence hardware also needs to be purchased from the same supplier.
CutFiles by VecRas are created by a team of experts with more than a decade of experience. Hence, their files are designed with a unique professional style and are highly precise, even on small holes, ports, corners, rounded shapes, etc.
They provide cut file vector templates in 5-6 different file formats (Ai, CDR, EPS, PLT, DXF, and SVG) so that they are convenient for you to use, while skin software generally offers only one format.
They also offer you the freedom to customize any cutfile per your requirement, while skin software does not provide any or little customization options.
These files allow for processing bulk orders, while there are limitations in skin software.
Additionally, their reliable support system seriously considers your requirements and works diligently to serve you. If you have any questions, want a few tips, need guidance, or wish to inquire about custom work, go ahead and contact them at [email protected] https://vecras.com/pages/contact.
Besides vector cut file templates, they also provide matching skin mockups to prepare high-quality website listing images, just like actual products. https://vecras.com/pages/smartpsds
