The PRIMA Management System provides the tools to -

Provide quick and easy press set up, for greater efficiency and capital equipment utilization

Significantly reduce copy waste at press start up and shut down

Direct management effort toward reducing waste and improving efficiency by providing real time and reported information

Allow effective monitoring and control of production and resources on a real time basis

The PRIMA MS provides production management and press operators with the tools to optimize production and reduce waste.

The system can run effectively on a single PC or can be grown to a fully integrated networked system, depending upon the requirements of the site. The system hardware and software is extensively supported throughout the world.

The PRIMA MS can also be integrated with other Harland Simon systems such as Reel Tracking and Totaliser.

User Access

Password protected for security

Each user can be granted individual access levels for each module

The User Access module enables a user to log on to the PRIMA MS to gain access to the other system modules and to log off at the end of his session. The level of access granted to the other system modules is dependent on the user name and password entered here.

The user may also change his password in order to maintain security.

Titles

Introduce additional newspaper titles to the system as new products are printed

Each title can be allocated its own production defaults

The Titles module is the means by which new product titles and default product types for those titles are entered into the system. These titles and their associated defaults can then be accessed when creating standard or production jobs.

The key fields are size, number of sections, pages per section and web/image width for those sites whose products are produced on different width paper.

The ink factors shown here are used as part of the presetting algorithm.
