Encoder Products Company (EPC), a U.S.-based designer and manufacturer of motion feedback devices, is proud to announce the launch of the LP1 Accu-LaserPro™, a breakthrough non-contact encoder designed for packaging, labeling, material handling, and industrial automation applications. The LP1 will debut at PACK EXPO 2025 in Las Vegas.
Unlike traditional wheeled or shaft-mounted encoders, the LP1 Accu-LaserPro uses laser-based optical technology to measure speed and distance with no physical contact—eliminating slip, reducing maintenance, and protecting materials from marking or wear.
“This technology represents a true leap forward for OEMs and system integrators,” said Bob White, CEO of Encoder Products Company. “With no wheels to replace or mechanical wear points to manage, the LP1 offers reliable, long-life performance while delivering precision accuracy for high-speed operations.”
Key Features of the LP1 Accu-LaserPro
• Slip-Free Measurement – Laser optics ensure accurate speed and distance regardless of belt or product slip.
• Programmable Encoder Output – Adjustable A/B output up to 120 pulses/mm.
• Integrated Trigger Outputs – Two freely programmable outputs (push/pull, NPN, PNP) with reversible signal levels.
• Advanced Trigger Capabilities – Trigger and sequential trigger up to 6.5m distance, with trigger block and standstill threshold settings.
• Reverse Lock Function – Maintains channel accuracy even when products temporarily move backwards.
• Flexible Integration – Compact, non-contact design simplifies mounting and protects delicate products.
Applications
The LP1 is engineered for industries where precision, uptime, and product quality are critical—including:
• Packaging and labeling lines
• Print registration and cut-to-length systems
• Conveyor and material handling equipment
• High-speed production lines
See It at PACK EXPO 2025
EPC will showcase live demonstrations of the LP1 Accu-LaserPro at PACK EXPO Las Vegas, Booth SL-11009. Attendees can experience firsthand how this innovative encoder delivers accurate, non-contact, slip-free measurement for today’s demanding automation environments.
