Applying Encoders with Measuring Wheels-Product Demonstration
EPC's encoder + measuring wheel solutions are specifically designed for applications that rely on linear measurement such as packaging, vision systems, laser marking, cut-to-length, spooling, and more.
Our Tru-Trac Models TR1, TR2, and TR3 are the original all-in-one encoder, measuring wheel, and torsion arm in one compact unit. The Model PLMS is a customizable linear measurement solution with encoder options including programmable incremental or absolute feedback.
For more information about our wheeled linear measurement solutions, see the Technical Bulletin TB-108: Encoders with Measuring Wheels at encoder.com/tb108-encoders-with-measuring-wheels.
