I'm in AZ. I run a small machine shop and started anodizing for the customers now I'm being asked to etch as well. Was going to do acid etch then I ran across this. Only problem is I am computer illiterate. How is it for old guy like me to learn? Would love to learn more or maybe check one out in person.
@@derekwaszkiewicz8338 - learning our machines is the easy part, but you would need to brush up on your graphic software skills. This is where many of our customer shine. The better you know a graphic software the easier it is to produce uniquely decorated products.
We use four zings in our company.. and they are relaly amazing lasers and honestly some of the most intuitive lasers i have worked with. Fast, reliable and if you have the rotary and the vecor cutting grid, you are set for a loooot of things. Perosnally.. if i had the money, i definitively would get one for myself for my own projects.
Great Demo....when you centered the wood phone case...you had it all lined up.....then moved it to get your focus....you where lucky that you repositioned it close enough
I have a super cheap $200.00 diode laser that does a nice job on wood and leather goods (ie.Wood boxes, wallets, etc). I advertise my products ($30.00) on popular online forums but they never sell well. How do people even get their money back on machines like an Epilog that sell for thousands?
Yea, it seems the people that don't know about laser cutting wont seek our it's products. And the people that do will just buy their own and learn to use it in a weekend.
I think you have to really play to people’s desires. Don’t sell the “laser” as the hook, make sure the item Itself is dope no matter how it was made. Whatever you laser on the wallet or box should be something people get psyched about. For example, people sell maps of middle earth lasered on leather, and I think they do alright because it’s so interesting and iconic. I also think if you swing it, local business is better. On Etsy or other services you’re competing with the whole country. In your hometown, you may be the only laser engraver around. Do some custom cutting boards or offer some businesses In your area lasered coasters for trade shows, and such and such. A lot of people don’t know about laser engraving so being unique in your own social sphere might benefit you more then in the art sphere where every person with a laser is trying to do the same as you.
slayerpianoman thanks! I’ll try again, but I’m in Long Island, New York. I bet a lot of people here all know about laser so I still think it won’t help.
Cool demo but I hate company websites like Epilog Laser that can't just be straight forward and tell you how much their products are. What do they have to hide, are they over priced or something? Instead you have to give them your name, address, email, and phone number up front before any pricing is given so that their sales department can keep harassing people to purchase whether ready to buy or not. I did a search on eBay and there is all kinds of these laser engravers from small desktop to massive free standing units from various manufacturers with upfront pricing without having to give out any personal info for those people who might not want a salesperson to show up at their front door but are curious as to what these machines should run.
I had no problem giving my info for their brochure & price list. They never hassled me or anything. I hassle them asking dumb questions and they have no problem answering...

So when you engrave the laser is not cutting on a flat plane, it will be at different distances as it travels over the curve. How will this effect the way it engraves, does it adjust itself for the different heights as it goes ?
Hello Benjamin: Can u let me know the price of this machine? Planning to have an engraving business, still with tons of questions, hope to have your help with it...
what is the life expectancy for these? I want to start an engraving business focusing mainly on glasses for the time being. After roughly how many glasses (or similarly sized projects) are your products expected to need servicing or "last"
Hi, glass is a great product to engrave with a laser machine. Our laser tubes will last from somewhere between 3-5 years depending on your application and hours of use. Glass produces very little smoke/debris during engraving, so the maintenance required to keep your system clean would be very little.
Just how small of an item can you engrave? I'm needing to render from a high quality photo to something smaller than a dime or about 3/8th of an inch. It will be doing the same task over and over but from a different macro photo.
You're local distributor will be able to help you with training, parts replacement, warranty extension, and material processing advice. To locate your distributor visit www.epiloglaser.com/where-to-buy/worldwide-distributors.htm.
Very informative video! It would have been much more pleasant to watch without the repetitive, annoying music. It was a real distraction to the information. I was very interested in the subject matter, but listened at at a barely audible volume because of the music.
I'm looking to get a Co2/carbon laser from epilog in the near future, i can't wait! one question i have is how durable is the equipment for long runs? for example if you have to engrave 200 pieces on metal, is that something you can do end to end or do you need to factor in a rest period for the machine between jobs?
Hi Alex - our CO2 metal tube laser systems are rated to last from 3-5 years depending on usage. We have many customers that run their lasers 5-7 days a week 8-10 hrs. a day without issue. If you are planning to run all 200 pieces in one session, then yes an Epilog laser system can handle those types of longer run time jobs. Is the engraving job a Cermark on metal application or some other coated metal application like anodized aluminum?
Benjamin Sieber sorry i forgot to mention this is in relation to fibre lasers not CO2 so the metal (aluminium) will be etched onto directly. for example a batch of serial numbers
Hi there. I'm curious to know how much a machine like this can cost? And also can it be shipped worldwide? I'm from Mauritius. Could someone please help with some answers?
I'd like to know where you get your alder wood and the bamboo box. Having a hard time finding good wholesale suppliers for this stuff here in the USA. Thanks in advanced. Nice work guys.
+I McClellan - The alder sheets are from Colorado Heirloom in Loveland, CO and the bamboo boxes are from a company called InterDesign, Inc. out of Ohio.
Hello! it looks amazing! what if i want to engrave on a curved surface? the laser will automatically measure the depth at time of engraving? as an example engraving a macbook, will i be able to do it? i am comparing your product with the new Glowforge. Thanks!!
+hugo camarillo - Yes, engraving a Macbook with any of our systems is a fairly easy application. An Epilog can laser etch at 72-1200 DPI and the anodized coating on the Macbooks is perfect for engraving at the higher resolutions. The resulting image at 600 or 1200 dpi on anodized looks amazing with more detail reproduced in the final laser etching. The laser beam will be in focus for approximately 1/8" above and below the focal distance so engraving on the slightly curved surface of the MacBook is not a problem. In addition, if you'd like to engraved drinking glasses or cylindrical shaped items most of our systems have a rotary attachment that is available as an add on.
Great video,you almost have me sold on it. But i do have a question. Will this machine engrave stone, such as slat or flat flagstone. Thanks again for the video.
+Richard Gottshall Yes, you can engrave different types of stone with our CO2 laser systems. Here are some examples: www.epiloglaser.com/how-it-works/stone.htm

They have dealers that are assigned to your region. You could probably negotiate some of the pricing and options, but I don't think their margins are that high. If you're looking at the Mini 24, pricing starts around $13,995 for the 30 Watt, $14,995 for the 40 Watt and $16,995 for the 50 Watt. It all depends on how you want your package configured. Sure, you can build a much larger and higher wattage system for less, but you're going to be struggling with the software and hardware. I'm looking at a 40 or 50 Watt Mini 24. It's probably all I'll ever need for the occasional use it'd have. I'd rather pay more for a system that is ready to go versus building and tinkering for a year destroying material until I figured it out. Their lasers last much, much longer than the chinese glass HV tubes. I could probably get by with their Zing series for way less, but I like the extras and features of the Mini. I'd rather not have to battle with the materials and parts I want to engrave or cut.
Worth every penny spent, you have an amazing product at an affordable price. You have given people the ability to manufacture complex engravings in their own home, at a price that would pay for itself fairly quickly. Compared to a $300 3 axis laser desktop laser engraver - I personally have no doubt that this would take your business from starting out to leading the way.
Epilog Laser, what would you say sets you aside from your competitors? I am looking at muse and glowforge. All have strong points and weak ones. How do you defend at a side by side comparison unit price?
Is it possible to connect them via LAN instead of USB? I'm interested in getting one, but it would be in a completely different room than my Computer (pretty much it would be in the workshop, and the computer in my office lol)
+Nathan Garza Create a second layer in the CAD/Design file that is the outline of your parts. Cover the bed of your machine in cardboard, tape it into position so it doesn't shift, and 1st cut the outlines through the cardboard and remove the centers. This gives you a "fixture" to locate your multiple, odd shaped parts. 2nd, load the parts, refocus, and run the other layer of the file that includes your text or graphics.

Our 30-watt laser tube will cut through 8 mm (0.31") pine and spruce in one pass, but if you're going to be using your system as a cutter a majority of the time a 50-60 watt will give you quite a bit more production power. You'll be able to run a 50 or 60-watt system more quickly and produce more of what you're making.
Yes, we used the Zing and Helix systems to produce all the samples featured in our video, but anyone of our systems will produce the same high-quality engravings you see here.
well that was useful in showing what they can do but since it was aimed for business owners it wasn't helpful to me because I want a laser cutter and engraver for personal use, but either way you have me convinced that you guys have some of the best laser engravers and cutters around. aka as soon as I have the money I'm so going to pick one of your zing 16's because they're the cheapest you have and I'm only 17 so it takes a while to get thousands of dollars.
Hi James - yes you can safely etch directly onto a phone or laptop without causing any harm to the device. It's important to make sure that if you device is under warranty that it won't void the warranty. In most cases it should, but you should check first with the manufacturer. Here is a video of an iPad being laser etched with a vacation photo. www.epiloglaser.com/how-it-works/video/ipad-air-engraving.htm
cool You said profitable but how about the cost of production parts and spares, and other things like electricity for example how it will cost me to engrave 1 by 1 square cm thanks for the videos
Hello - we have a very extensive list of material suppliers that can help you generate product ideas or source the products for customization with an Epilog Laser system. Here is a link to the Industry Links section on our website - www.epiloglaser.com/resources/industry-links.htm. As for the electrical needs of the laser, it will cost you very little to run the laser. The average cost of running our lasers in the U.S. is about $0.18 cents per hour (based on an average $0.12/kWh cost), but this will vary depending on the average cost per kWh where you live. Here is a page that explains how to calculate the cost per hour based on your kWh costs - support.epiloglaser.com/article/8205/29954/power-consumption-and-your-laser.

Two part question - where or how do you get those, I assume, stock photos, flowers designs, Rockies, etc.? And, how do you get licensed for NFL, MLB, NCAA, etc designs? Thanks.
I'm fairly certain you can print using vector graphics. Vector graphics are different from photos from your phone in that they are images that are mathematically calculated to be able to scale to any size. If you want NFL, MLB, NCAA etc designs for personal use, just google "NFL png" or "MLB png" designs .png is a file format that uses vector graphics. Hope that helps!
Walter Hynson no - you will get a cease and desist and also a chance to license. Look at Etsy - we would al love licenses. No no jail it’s not criminal like that - they can send a cease and desist and ask for royalties
Do you offer financing on your lasers? Lasers have come a long ways since I was introduced to them in the mid 1970's. My friend and mentor acquired a CO2 laser in the 100 Watt range. It was made of glass and water cooled. We managed to burn holes in 1/4 and 1/2 inch steel plates using carbon blocks as a safety backstop.
Sort of sad that these things demand financing or selling of body parts to own for something that if left to sit there slowly degrades until it will no longer function (something to do with one of the gasses in the tubes) and you have to buy another 600-2k dollar laser tube replacement.
Vintage Timepiece Collection Hello, the depth of the engraving can be controlled by varying the speed of the carriage and power of the laser to achieve different depths.
Yes, you can change the power of the laser output as well. Depending on which material you are working with you can lower or raise the power and speed on a 1% to 100% scale.

Hi Ed. Yes the Zing Laser also engraves glass items. The caveat there is that if you are interested in engraving cylindrical items you'll need to go with the Epilog Zing 24 system + the additional rotary attachment available for purchase. Any of the wattage laser tubes we offer will engrave glass, but if you are interested in increasing your throughput we recommend a 50 or 60-watt laser tube.
Great. SO please what is the price of the Zing 24, with the rotary attachment included. Also what other mediums will the zing 24 engrave and will it also cut through wood?

Just how small of an item can you engrave? I'm needing to render from a high quality photo to something smaller than a dime or about 3/8th of an inch. It will be doing the same task over and over but from a different macro photo.
this was helpful thank you
Do you hava a distributor in Turkey in order to see one in working? I have two Chinese and I am planning to buy 2 more. Yours are fantastic.
Looks great but where would you get service if something breaks?
You're local distributor will be able to help you with training, parts replacement, warranty extension, and material processing advice. To locate your distributor visit www.epiloglaser.com/where-to-buy/worldwide-distributors.htm.
Very informative video! It would have been much more pleasant to watch without the repetitive, annoying music. It was a real distraction to the information. I was very interested in the subject matter, but listened at at a barely audible volume because of the music.
I'm looking to get a Co2/carbon laser from epilog in the near future, i can't wait! one question i have is how durable is the equipment for long runs? for example if you have to engrave 200 pieces on metal, is that something you can do end to end or do you need to factor in a rest period for the machine between jobs?
Hi Alex - our CO2 metal tube laser systems are rated to last from 3-5 years depending on usage. We have many customers that run their lasers 5-7 days a week 8-10 hrs. a day without issue. If you are planning to run all 200 pieces in one session, then yes an Epilog laser system can handle those types of longer run time jobs. Is the engraving job a Cermark on metal application or some other coated metal application like anodized aluminum?
Benjamin Sieber sorry i forgot to mention this is in relation to fibre lasers not CO2 so the metal (aluminium) will be etched onto directly. for example a batch of serial numbers
Hi there. I'm curious to know how much a machine like this can cost? And also can it be shipped worldwide? I'm from Mauritius. Could someone please help with some answers?
+Hyperion THIS UNIT IS ABOUT $14999
I'd like to know where you get your alder wood and the bamboo box. Having a hard time finding good wholesale suppliers for this stuff here in the USA. Thanks in advanced. Nice work guys.
+I McClellan - The alder sheets are from Colorado Heirloom in Loveland, CO and the bamboo boxes are from a company called InterDesign, Inc. out of Ohio.
Is possible to slice choccolate? how many watt?
Yes
can it do on paper?
Hello! it looks amazing! what if i want to engrave on a curved surface? the laser will automatically measure the depth at time of engraving? as an example engraving a macbook, will i be able to do it? i am comparing your product with the new Glowforge.
Thanks!!
+hugo camarillo - Yes, engraving a Macbook with any of our systems is a fairly easy application. An Epilog can laser etch at 72-1200 DPI and the anodized coating on the Macbooks is perfect for engraving at the higher resolutions. The resulting image at 600 or 1200 dpi on anodized looks amazing with more detail reproduced in the final laser etching. The laser beam will be in focus for approximately 1/8" above and below the focal distance so engraving on the slightly curved surface of the MacBook is not a problem. In addition, if you'd like to engraved drinking glasses or cylindrical shaped items most of our systems have a rotary attachment that is available as an add on.
Great video,you almost have me sold on it. But i do have a question. Will this machine engrave stone, such as slat or flat flagstone. Thanks again for the video.
+Richard Gottshall Yes, you can engrave different types of stone with our CO2 laser systems. Here are some examples: www.epiloglaser.com/how-it-works/stone.htm
Can this laser also cut metal, vinyl, acrylic fibre glass and paper
+krobley This kind of laser is not suited for metal works.
How good is it on metal?
Wao. its quite something

Hello - Póngase en contacto con su distribuidor local para comprar una lente para su máquina. www.advancedmarkingsolutions.com/
Nobody can ever just give you a freaking price
The Zing 16 laser system with 30-watt laser tube, a 16" x 12" (406 x 305 mm) work area, and engraving resolution up to 1000 DPI starts at $7,995 in the United States. For the most accurate pricing on a specific system we recommend filling out the form on this page www.epiloglaser.com/request-information/request-information.htm. Your local distributor can provide you with the pricing in your area. If you have any other specific question please provide them in the comments section of the form and we'll get you the answers you are looking for.
They have dealers that are assigned to your region. You could probably negotiate some of the pricing and options, but I don't think their margins are that high.
If you're looking at the Mini 24, pricing starts around $13,995 for the 30 Watt, $14,995 for the 40 Watt and $16,995 for the 50 Watt. It all depends on how you want your package configured.
Sure, you can build a much larger and higher wattage system for less, but you're going to be struggling with the software and hardware. I'm looking at a 40 or 50 Watt Mini 24. It's probably all I'll ever need for the occasional use it'd have. I'd rather pay more for a system that is ready to go versus building and tinkering for a year destroying material until I figured it out. Their lasers last much, much longer than the chinese glass HV tubes.
I could probably get by with their Zing series for way less, but I like the extras and features of the Mini. I'd rather not have to battle with the materials and parts I want to engrave or cut.
Worth every penny spent, you have an amazing product at an affordable price. You have given people the ability to manufacture complex engravings in their own home, at a price that would pay for itself fairly quickly. Compared to a $300 3 axis laser desktop laser engraver - I personally have no doubt that this would take your business from starting out to leading the way.
Epilog Laser, what would you say sets you aside from your competitors? I am looking at muse and glowforge. All have strong points and weak ones. How do you defend at a side by side comparison unit price?
Jose Hernandez speed
Witam skąd pan bierze szablony do projektu laserem
Any laser machine that cuts through names 1 mm to 2 mm thick silver or gold. This is for pendant project.
Maybe a fiber laser. You can cut SS with a fiber, but I can't guarantee silver and gold will absorb light as well.
Great job
Is it possible to connect them via LAN instead of USB?
I'm interested in getting one, but it would be in a completely different room than my Computer (pretty much it would be in the workshop, and the computer in my office lol)
Absolutely possible! Ethernet is the much more reliable way to go.
How would you set up items a that aren't square such as multiple knife blades?
+Nathan Garza Create a second layer in the CAD/Design file that is the outline of your parts. Cover the bed of your machine in cardboard, tape it into position so it doesn't shift, and 1st cut the outlines through the cardboard and remove the centers. This gives you a "fixture" to locate your multiple, odd shaped parts. 2nd, load the parts, refocus, and run the other layer of the file that includes your text or graphics.
I am trying to get detailed information as to how to engrave high quality photos of dogs, cats, etc on cherry wood. The final image will be around 2 x3. Thanks!
Can I use this zing to engrave on a round item or a tube? Can I personalize say a stainless steel item?
What about engraving your own rubber stamps??
With Epilog's laser engravers you can quickly and easily engrave and cut many different types of rubber. Epilog Laser systems make it easy to produce ink stamps, wood block stamps and embossing and debossing dye stamps, all with the same laser system through a few settings in our print driver. Here is a link to a page with a short explaination of the process of using Epilog's Stamp Mode, available with all of our systems, and a few other links with some examles of compelte rubber stamp and silicon engraving projects.

Very nice super excited
do you have any experience with carbon fiber on this machine
+マスタードラゴン(再開) - Hello, carbon fiber is a difficult material to cut with a laser, but you can do it with high wattage laser systems. The edge quality of laser cut carbon fiber is some applications is not desirable, but for others it is fine.

How much Laser power is needed to cut thru 8mm softwoods like Pine and Spruce ?
Our 30-watt laser tube will cut through 8 mm (0.31") pine and spruce in one pass, but if you're going to be using your system as a cutter a majority of the time a 50-60 watt will give you quite a bit more production power. You'll be able to run a 50 or 60-watt system more quickly and produce more of what you're making.
Very nice work
Impressive.
Did you used the same machine for all the simples?
Yes, we used the Zing and Helix systems to produce all the samples featured in our video, but anyone of our systems will produce the same high-quality engravings you see here.
well that was useful in showing what they can do but since it was aimed for business owners it wasn't helpful to me because I want a laser cutter and engraver for personal use, but either way you have me convinced that you guys have some of the best laser engravers and cutters around. aka as soon as I have the money I'm so going to pick one of your zing 16's because they're the cheapest you have and I'm only 17 so it takes a while to get thousands of dollars.
Please let me know this price or todays current model
Is it possible to engrave directly onto phone or laptops versus a snap on cover safely?
James Thrush yes
Hi James - yes you can safely etch directly onto a phone or laptop without causing any harm to the device. It's important to make sure that if you device is under warranty that it won't void the warranty. In most cases it should, but you should check first with the manufacturer. Here is a video of an iPad being laser etched with a vacation photo. www.epiloglaser.com/how-it-works/video/ipad-air-engraving.htm
cool
You said profitable but how about the cost of production parts and spares, and other things like electricity for example how it will cost me to engrave 1 by 1 square cm
thanks for the videos
Hello - we have a very extensive list of material suppliers that can help you generate product ideas or source the products for customization with an Epilog Laser system. Here is a link to the Industry Links section on our website - www.epiloglaser.com/resources/industry-links.htm. As for the electrical needs of the laser, it will cost you very little to run the laser. The average cost of running our lasers in the U.S. is about $0.18 cents per hour (based on an average $0.12/kWh cost), but this will vary depending on the average cost per kWh where you live. Here is a page that explains how to calculate the cost per hour based on your kWh costs - support.epiloglaser.com/article/8205/29954/power-consumption-and-your-laser.

Two part question - where or how do you get those, I assume, stock photos, flowers designs, Rockies, etc.? And, how do you get licensed for NFL, MLB, NCAA, etc designs? Thanks.
I'm fairly certain you can print using vector graphics. Vector graphics are different from photos from your phone in that they are images that are mathematically calculated to be able to scale to any size. If you want NFL, MLB, NCAA etc designs for personal use, just google "NFL png" or "MLB png" designs .png is a file format that uses vector graphics. Hope that helps!
Walter Hynson no - you will get a cease and desist and also a chance to license. Look at Etsy - we would al love licenses. No no jail it’s not criminal like that - they can send a cease and desist and ask for royalties
Do want!

Do you offer financing on your lasers?
Lasers have come a long ways since I was introduced to them in the mid 1970's. My friend and mentor acquired a CO2 laser in the 100 Watt range. It was made of glass and water cooled. We managed to burn holes in 1/4 and 1/2 inch steel plates using carbon blocks as a safety backstop.
Sort of sad that these things demand financing or selling of body parts to own for something that if left to sit there slowly degrades until it will no longer function (something to do with one of the gasses in the tubes) and you have to buy another 600-2k dollar laser tube replacement.
can the depth of the engrave be controlled?
Vintage Timepiece Collection Hello, the depth of the engraving can be controlled by varying the speed of the carriage and power of the laser to achieve different depths.
What is the cost of that machine youbare using??
how much cast on this machine
- via YTPak(.com)
Can you change the power of the laser and not just burn time
Yes, you can change the power of the laser output as well. Depending on which material you are working with you can lower or raise the power and speed on a 1% to 100% scale.
Benjamin Sieber thank you. I’m very interested in purchasing one.
@@Checkitfirst Where are you located? The next step if you're interested in purchasing will be to contact your local distributor.

If you are printing your own design that you want to be laser printed, what software should you be drawing in ?
You can print text, graphics, logos and photos with any graphics software. We recommend Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, and CorelDRAW, but essentially, if you can print it, you can engrave it. For laser cutting, you will need to use a vector based graphic software like Adobe Illustrator or CorelDRAW.
Epilog Laser thanks !!

Will the Zing engrave glass as well?
Hi Ed. Yes the Zing Laser also engraves glass items. The caveat there is that if you are interested in engraving cylindrical items you'll need to go with the Epilog Zing 24 system + the additional rotary attachment available for purchase. Any of the wattage laser tubes we offer will engrave glass, but if you are interested in increasing your throughput we recommend a 50 or 60-watt laser tube.
Great. SO please what is the price of the Zing 24, with the rotary attachment included. Also what other mediums will the zing 24 engrave and will it also cut through wood?
Hi Ed, we can have your local distributor put together a quote with the latest sales pricing, and we can set up a hands-on demo if you send your information to sales@epiloglaser.com.
