OUR SYSTEMS
The Epilog Zing Laser starter series is Epilog’s small format, high-quality engraving line. The perfect desktop laser cutter for everything from home use to starting a business, the Zing Laser provides high-quality engraving and cutting, at a low cost.
Epilog’s smallest laser, the Zing 16 laser machine, features a 16″ x 12″ (406 x 305 mm) work area with 30 and 40-watt laser options, while the Zing 24, provides a larger 24″ x 12″ (610 x 305 mm) work area with 30, 40, 50, and 60-watt laser options.
And we’re proud to say the Zing Lasers are 100% designed, engineered and built in the USA!

| Laser Wattage | 30 or 40 watts | 30, 40, 50, or 60 watts |
| Laser Source | State-of-the-art, digitally controlled, air-cooled CO2 laser tubes are fully modular, permanently aligned and field replaceable. | |
| Intelligent Memory Capacity | Multiple file storage up to 64 MB. Rolling buffer allows files of any size to be engraved. | |
| Air Assist | Attach an air compressor to our included Air Assist to remove heat and combustible gases from the cutting surface by directing a constant stream of compressed air across the cutting surface. | |
| Laser Dashboard | The Laser Dashboard™ controls your Epilog Laser’s settings from a wide range of software packages – from design programs to spreadsheet applications to CAD drawing packages. | |
| Red Dot Pointer | Since the laser beam is invisible, the Red Dot Pointer on Epilog’s Zing Laser allows you to have a visual reference for locating where the laser will fire. | |
| Relocatable Home | When engraving items that are not easily placed at the top corner of the laser, you can set a new home position by hand with the convenient Movable Home Position feature on the Zing Laser. | |
| Operating Modes | Optimized raster, vector or combined modes. | |

| Maximum Table Weight | The Zing 16 and 24 have a static table weight of 50 lbs (22.7 kg) and a lifting table weight of 25 lbs (11.5 kg). | |
| Ventilation System | 350 – 400 CFM (595-680 m3/hr) external exhaust to the outside or internal filtration system is required. There is one output port, 4″ in diameter. | |
Rotary Attachments for Cylindrical Items
Introducing the Zing 24 Laser Rotary Attachment! Now you can engrave wine bottles, mugs, glasses, flashlights or any other cylindrical item up to 5.25″ (133.4 mm) in diameter on the Epilog Zing Laser.
So intuitive and easy to use, you can switch from one glass to the next in seconds – without even removing the attachment from the engraver! In addition, our proprietary design provides accurate image scaling, so there’s no need to input diameter or circumference calculations.
Setup is as easy as placing your product on the Rotary Attachment, raising or lowering the scissor lift to level the engraving area, and printing to the laser!
*The Rotary Attachment is not available for the Zing 16.*
PhotoLaser Plus Software
PhotoLaser Plus takes photo engraving with your Epilog Zing Starter Series laser to the next level by easily processing photos for engraving on all types of materials.
Are you looking for a system that engraves outstanding photographs? How about a system that engraves photos in a consistent, predictable way for your customers?
Epilog Laser has partnered with CADLink to bring you the industry’s best photo processing software: PhotoLaser Plus. The easy-to-use software interface and powerful photo processing tools allow you to create the highest-quality photo engravings in the industry.
Zing Laser Cutting Grid Insert
The Vector Cutting Grid on the Epilog Zing laser is used to lift materials being cut above the work surface. This allows the laser beam to pass cleanly through the material you are cutting and dramatically reduces underside reflections.
The air space below the vector grid is connected to the exhaust, so smoke is removed not only from the top side of the material, but also from the underside.
