What began in one engineer’s garage in 1969, with the world’s first cube encoder, is now a world-wide enterprise, including locations in the UK, China, and India, with their main location in Sagle, ID, where a 100,000 sq-ft, vertically-integrated facility houses the corporate headquarters and main factory.

Today, Encoder Products Co. (EPC) produces an array of motion feedback solutions, with many more new motion feedback solutions in development. EPC’s line of encoders includes:

• The innovative line of Tru-Trac™ linear measurement solutions, all-in-one solutions with encoder, measuring wheel, and spring-loaded torsion arm

Thru-bore motor-mount incremental encoders

Heavy-duty shaft encoders

Magnetic encoder modules

Programmable encoders

Absolute encoders with SSI, CANopen, and EtherCAT® communications

“At Encoder Products we have always focused on being responsive to our customers’ needs,” says John Meschko, EPC’s CEO and Chief Engineer. “We focus on priorities that are important to our customers to provide innovative products and excellent service that gives them the best overall value for their money. We work hard to meet or exceed their expectations. Looking forward, we are excited to continue the company’s traditions with new products and innovations in the world of motion feedback devices.”
