“Honeywell technology and life cycle services provide us with a total solution that will enable our operators to easily and efficiently control the printing process,” said Juha Rouhiainen, WS Bookwell Production Manager. “Our decision to work with Honeywell was based on Sanoma WSOY’s positive experience with previous Honeywell solutions and the knowledge that Printa gives us the flexibility to upgrade and expand our technology in the future.”

The system is to comprise all the functions of a MAN-Bookomatic printing press, including production planning, drive controls, plus the unit and folder controls. The printing press line functions will be fully automatic, with the press printing and finishing the end-product from the paper roll into ready-made books.

“We’re excited to broaden our printing press automation solutions to book printing enterprises,” said Paul Orzeske, vice president Europe, Middle East and Africa for Honeywell Process Solutions. “This agreement strengthens our capabilities to supply automation solutions that reduce printing costs and increase operating efficiency.”
