Is This the Best Laser Accessory Ever??

loving this. I have a camera on order for my laser, and cant wait to get going with it. My philosophy is, if it will make things easier, and speed it up - I need it :-)

Looks super helpful!

What’s the best accessory that you’ve seen?

This is a very good. Concerning the cutting board will that technique work on any laser or is this specific to the Epilog software?

Can you add a camera to any laser or are they certain ones

Good Job Trevor As always I enjoy watching your videos, keep up the good work Buddy!!!

Great video! You just sold me on a camera

Hi, I want to buy a laser to engrave accessories such as bracelets, chains and portraits. I am new in this field, can you suggest me a model? Thanks !

Nice Job. Thanks for sharing.

Great tutorial. Your videos are some of the main reasons that we ordered and just received a fusion edge to go with our helix. Thanks for doing these and please do more. Can't wait to get the edge up and running this weekend.

Finally managed to view avideo from you again.
As usual well explained, Trevor.

Betteridge's Law strikes again.

you never showed the cam or unit so down vote

Okay, here’s my professional opinion if it means anything.

I have two of these systems; the Fusion 32 and the 48. While I totally agree that it does make placement and workflow more efficient, your viewers and future purchasers should be advised that the further away you get from center, where the camera is mounted, the more lens parallax you’ll experience and the more INACCURATE your engraving or cutting will be. This holds true for the X AND the Y axis. You’re still going to have to measure/compensate because of this fact. Many times I don’t even use the camera because of this issue. Problematic offset concentric circles inside of objects like coasters are easily noticeable even to the most untrained eye. The Fusion Edge may not be as pronounced but it still occurs. One should look forward to much wasted substrate/material or customer’s object if a technician is unaware. I personally hope that Epilog addresses the issue by either software modification post convex lens (plane geometry re-calc to the Job Manager) or simply placing more cameras on top and software stitching). I’d pay more either way to make this problem go away. If not addressed, Trotec, will likely beat them at their own innovation. Not cool.

Trevor, don’t get me wrong. I really do like the feature but the problem shouldn’t go without some fixing or at least Epilog should’ve published an established work-around.

Another awesome vid. Thanks for posting. Did you know that there is an additional camera for registration right by the head? Not a lot of topic on that one. It’s quite capable.

I added a camera right after I got my laser and it was the best decision I made. SO easy to set up projects.

What program do you use on your computer Corell draw ?

Great video! I'm going to speak with a distributor for Epilog on Wednesday about the Fusion Edge. you have the 60W which creates excellent detail (i.e. Union Stars on the red aluminum piece). - When speaking to the company, they mentioned upgrading to the 80W. Will that extra take away from your detail?

I know I can dial the power back but not sure on detail with a larger laser.

Question: Can the camera setup "Take a Photo" and recreate it to reprint? If my child draws something - can I take a photo and recreate it onto something? Thanx

Really very cool 😎

Thank you. All your videos are very helpful.
