E61 is a partucular group head design, it provides temperature consistency and a form of pre infusion.

Lots of commercially machines like slayer have a portafilter but that's where the similarity ends.

And to add… most cafes in Australia (at least the ones I’ve ever been to) all use e61. Maybe something to do with La Marzocco having an almost-monopoly here
