Air Assist

Air assist is most commonly used for vector cutting applications where the need to
keep combustible gases way from the cutting surface is desirable. The Air Assist
directs a constant stream of compressed air across the material surface at the point of
burn removing the heat and combustible gases from the work surface.
The constant air stream helps reduce charring
and scorching associated with materials, such
as wood, rubber, and acrylic.
This photo at left shows the air assist tube.
All Epilog systems have the plumbing for the
air assist included (a pump is optional) as a
standard part of the machine.
Shop air can be used in place of the optional
Epilog pump.
