Press Automation Philosophies
Harland Simon’s PRIMA press automation system combines over 20 years experience in the newspaper printing industry with modern advances in automation and information technology.
The cornerstones of our automation strategy are -

Open communications giving ease of data flow from printing couple to boardroom

Industry standard hardware platforms benefiting from mass production, high reliability and worldwide availability and support

Industry standard operating systems, software and programming packages to ease implementation, maintenance and staff recruitment

Modular system design with excellent diagnostics to minimize plant downtime

Using standard platforms wherever possible, we have put together a truly open press automation system. From the PRIMA computer system, right through the press control consoles to the machine control equipment we have used standard well-proven equipment to reduce downtime and maximize return on investment.
