Introduction to Epilog Laser Systems
Epilog Laser systems are designed to enhance woodworking capabilities by providing detailed graphic images and precision cuts. These systems are ideal for custom engraving and cutting, adding distinction and profitability to wood products.

Working with Wood
Wood is the most popular material for use with Epilog's laser systems due to its ease of engraving and cutting. The laser burns away the wood to create a high contrast, allowing for intricate engravings of photographs, logos, and images.

Engraving Detail and Quality
Epilog's systems can engrave with fine detail up to 1200 dots per inch, producing unmatched quality. This is achieved through a combination of advanced motion control and electronics. All Epilog systems, from the Mini 18 to the Legend 36EXT, can produce this quality.

Wood Engraving Techniques
High contrast and consistent depth are crucial for quality engravings. Adjusting speed, power, and resolution settings allows for optimal engraving depth. Grayscale images provide excellent contrast and a near 3D appearance when engraved.

Laser Cutting Wood
CO2 lasers enable intricate designs and detailed inlays. The laser cuts designs created in graphic software, functioning like a printer. Advantages include non-contact cutting and the ability to hold materials in place with an Integrated Vacuum Table.

Choosing the Right Laser Wattage
Higher wattage lasers allow for faster engraving and cutting through thicker wood. For example, a 25-watt system may require 35% speed and 100% power, while a 45-watt system can achieve the same depth at 50% speed.

Applications
Epilog Laser systems are versatile, suitable for applications such as inlays, overlays, marquetry, custom engravings, game manufacturing, and more. They can be used for creating items like custom boxes, signs, furniture, and holiday decorations.
