Explore key Epilog laser features by category.
Camera & Positioning Features
IRIS / IRIS HD+ Camera Positioning
Live overhead views of the work area make drag-and-drop artwork placement faster and more accurate. Multi-camera configurations are available on higher-end Fusion systems, including Fusion Pro and Fusion Ascent.
Registration Cameras
Dedicated registration support helps align print-and-cut jobs using marks, reducing manual setup and improving contour-cut accuracy.
Red Dot Pointer
A visible pointer helps operators confirm where the beam will start before running a job.
Job Trace
Trace functions outline the job area before processing so operators can verify placement with confidence.
Motion System, Speed, and Build
Acceleration & Top Speed
Motors, Bearings, and Chassis
Optics, Tubes, and Beam Quality
CO2 RF-Waveguide Laser Tubes
Epilog’s air-cooled RF CO2 tubes are built for long life, strong heat dissipation, and consistent beam quality.
Fiber / MOPA Sources
Fiber configurations are available on Fusion Galvo and select Fusion systems for direct metal marking and plastic marking applications.
Radiance Beam-Enhancing Optics
Beam-enhancing optics help deliver finer detail for engraving small text, photos, and precision graphics.
Multiple Lens Options
Different lens choices support higher-resolution engraving, standard general-purpose work, and thicker-material cutting or broader focus ranges.
Workflow, Software, and Job Management
Laser Dashboard
Epilog’s job interface keeps key settings in one place, including speed, power, and other processing controls, for cleaner day-to-day operation.
Epilog Pulse
Pulse is a browser-based workflow tool on current model machines that supports processing from Mac, PC, and other connected devices.
Epilog Job Manager
Job Manager helps operators search job history, organize files, and re-run saved work with prior settings.
PrintAPI
PrintAPI allows custom software and automated systems to communicate directly with supported Epilog machines for integrated workflows.
Safety, Enclosure, and Controls
Class 2 Enclosures
Current Fusion systems use enclosed Class 2 designs with door interlocks. Some models also offer optional Class 4 pass-through kits or accessories.
SAFEGUARD Features
SAFEGUARD design details help keep machine mechanics cleaner and more protected during regular shop use.
Emergency Stop & Key Switch
Built-in safety controls give operators clear power and stop functions during setup and operation.
Status Lights & Indicators
Modern systems include visual indicators and on-machine controls that make status and job monitoring easier.
Cooling, Fans, and Noise Levels
Quiet Cooling Fans
Computer-controlled fan systems help reduce noise while maintaining stable cooling performance.
Air-Cooled Sources
Most current Epilog CO2 and fiber platforms use air-cooled sources, avoiding separate water chiller setups.
Thermal Monitoring
Cooling-related monitoring helps protect performance and alert operators when conditions need attention.
Tables, Air Assist, and Exhaust
Tables for Different Work
Different table styles support engraving, cutting, and marking tasks, depending on the machine and application.
Air Assist
Air Assist directs airflow across the cutting area to reduce heat buildup, flare-ups, and edge contamination.
Easy Material Loading
Large top doors, front access, and pass-through-friendly designs on some systems simplify loading larger or awkward materials.
Exhaust & Filtration Ready
Epilog systems are designed to connect to external exhaust blowers or compatible filtration systems for smoke and debris control.
