Blower Specifications for Epilog Laser Engravers


We have outlined in this article what we feel is a good blower for you laser engraver. This specification is based on an installation where you are no farther than 20 feet from the laser machine to the exit of your exhaust pipe out the wall. The attached blower is available at Busy Bee tools. We would suggest that you also purchase a gate that allows you to restrict the flow of air for thin materials.
Figure 1 is a picture of the blower that we suggest. It is a 1 hp dust collector blower.

Figure 2 shows the specs for 3 blowers.

Figure 3 shows some of the accessories that you buy. We suggest that you use the rigid pipe that is shown in figure 3. You can also use metal pipe. Do not use the white dryer pipe.
