Support From SUN Automation The installation of the new Latitude machine began in late August of 2019 with the goal of an October 1 start date. Because of the output demands of peak season for Premier Packaging, they needed to start off with a full understanding of the machinery so that they could run at maximum capacity and not compromise margin and output. Premier Packaging staff training with the SUN Au- tomation Group and Latitude experts began early in the process, with the goal of maximum efficiency and profit- ability. Starting October 1, the machine was able to operate at top speed. This was a major factor in their record-setting three-month window during peak season in 2019. Earlier in 2019, SUN Automation became the exclusive representative in North America and Central America for LMC., providing machinery, parts and support. LMC is a world-class manufacturer of corrugated converting equip- ment, specializing in flexo folder gluers and rotary diecut- ters. Known for its reliability, Latitude equipment is a global success with machine sizes ranging from mini to jumbo. The Taiwan-based company has partnered with SUN Auto- mation to offer new and existing North and Central Ameri- can customers like Premier Packaging the trusted service, support of a North-American based industry leader. The intuitive Latitude machines are easy for the staff of Premier Packaging to use when setting up orders. And with the technology available with modern machines from Latitude, technicians are able to remotely access the ma- chines to help troubleshoot in real time without always having to send a technician to the facility or explain solu- tions remotely. The ability to manufacture inside/outside print boxes has al- lowed Premier Packaging to meet the needs of the massive e-commerce market.
