Epilog techniques

Our Epilog laser engraver is capable of obtaining great results on a number of materials. Go ahead and add any strategies you've found to work well.

Delrin dies

It is possible to make deeply engraved Delrin dies in rubber stamp mode by slowly manually adjusting the focus up stop by stop, making two or three passes at each point. Depending on your design, care must be taken to ensure that the edges of your positive image don't sag from being repeatedly heated as the laser engraves around them. Enlarging the shoulder in rubber stamp mode will usually fix this problem for larger shapes. Special care must be taken with finely set type and intricate designs. Experiment to find the minimum point size for lines that works well.
