Hobby to Professional with an Epilog

Fusion Maker 12

The Epilog Fusion Maker 12 is a compelling choice for launching your laser startup. It combines affordability with professional-grade features like Epilog’s IRIS Camera System, which streamlines project setup. With a work area suitable for various items and the ability to handle popular materials like wood, acrylic, and fabric, you can offer a diverse range of laser engraving and cutting services. While it’s a starter system, the Fusion Maker 12 boasts industrial-level engineering for quality results, allowing you to build a strong reputation from the beginning.

Reliable Excellence

High Quality Laser Engraving

We often hear from customers that they can’t believe the difference between the engraving they achieve with their Epilog machine and what they see created by other laser engravers. Why is this? It’s a combination of our higher-quality laser tube design and a technologically advanced motion control system. We can achieve our highest engraving resolutions even at the machine’s top speeds. Try that with any other system and you’ll be disappointed!

Higher Speed Laser Engraving and Cutting

Long-life, air-cooled laser tubes aren’t a luxury for your laser business. They are a necessity. They are the heart of our laser systems. When you have a tube that you can fire at high speeds, the results are simply amazing. The engraving quality is crisp, detailed, and laser precise.

Repeatable Results Made Easy

Positioning your artwork takes seconds on an Epilog system thanks to easy, top-left table positioning and a variety of positioning features, like our IRIS Camera Live-Preview feature. Center-Center engraving allows you to set the center point of your artwork as the home position in seconds. In fact, you can move the home position to anywhere on the engraving table! Previewing your artwork with the Red Dot Pointer can guarantee your alignment is perfect on any item. Or use the laser to create a jig that will hold your pieces in position the next time you want to run a full table of items.

Operational Choice

Run Your Projects Through Your Computer

With Epilog’s system you are not forced to use a cloud-based web software where you don’t have control over your designs. Send it through the Epilog Job Manager, and the next time you want to run your engraving, it’ll be ready to go along with all of the settings you have used in the past to get the best results. You won’t waste time reconnecting your laser to the internet and waiting for endless calibrations.

Design in the Software of Your Choice

With Epilog Laser systems you aren’t locked into proprietary software that only works for some of your design work and comes with little to no support. You can use the software you like best – Illustrator, CorelDRAW, Photoshop, AutoCAD, Inkscape…the list goes on. These software packages have been designed with the best features available, so we’ve made our systems easy to use from any of these software suites.

Support

Stay Up and Running

If you do run into a problem, we have support and service ready to help. Online technical support is available through our website, or you can call or email with your problem. We can overnight the part to you and get you back up and running as quickly as possible. You won’t be asked to return your system if there is an issue – every component has been designed for easy user maintenance, so you won’t lose out on business while your laser is down.

Is Room Temperature a Factor?

Not with our laser tubes.

Inexpensive glass laser tubes must be cooled much more stringently than the metal/ceramic tube that your Epilog Laser system features. Most glass tubes require a water pump and bucket of water to cool the tube. If the system features internal cooling liquids, you must operate the laser in low temperature rooms or the laser will stop operating. Epilog’s systems feature air-cooling methods, making it safe to operate your system in any environment 90 °F (32 °C) or cooler.
