IDAHO AEROSPACE ALLIANCE SPOTLIGHT The company’s primary market has been industrial automation and all the varied factory machinery used across a multitude of industries. In recent years, aerospace has emerged as an area of focus for EPC. Currently, the Idaho facility houses a dedicated production line that manufactures a custom encoder for a U.S. defense aerospace prime contractor. EPC’s engineering team worked closely with the customer to develop a product that meets specific application criteria, from initial design, through testing, and contract award. In addition, EPC also supplies COTS encoders to several defense and commercial aerospace OEM’s and Tier 1 suppliers. EPC encoders are used in commer- cial rockets, commercial airborne antenna positioning, defense and commercial ground antenna positioning, aircraft assembly equipment, test equipment, ground equipment, flight simulators, and baggage handling systems. An attractive option for companies looking to bolster their range of small-business suppliers, EPC is located in a HUB- CGTech-AUG-SEPT-Northwest Aero-VC90-PRINT.pdf 1 6/13/2019 AM Zone and is a certified small business as well as ITAR 8:14:28 compli- ant. A member of the Idaho Aerospace Alliance, EPC plans to continue to be part of the growing I-90 Aerospace Corridor with an expanding range of capabilities.
