Print Media Corporation (PMC) is a testing and training centre for Ferag technology – and a functioning production operation. A unique model.

Auf dem Programm des Ferag Pressetags 2012 stand auch der Besuch des Demonstrations- und Trainingszentrums PMC.

Printed advertising matter, commercial objects and magazines are produced in the independently operated finishing centre for print products in Oetwil am See, Switzerland. There, Ferag customers have the opportunity to use the latest Ferag equipment under genuine production conditions and thus confront real challenges such as occur in everyday production. The motto is: He who masters his tools, works better.

Maintenance constitutes a major part of the offered training. Well-founded knoweldge and suitable application are the only means by which it is possible to optimise the performance and operating life of the equipment. Scheduled preventive maintenance significantly reduces the risk of production interruption due to necessary repairs, prevents unscheduled production delays and potential losses of orders.

Workshops, a mixture of theory and practice, are offered for team leaders, machine supervisors, though also sales personnel who should know what the equipment is capable of performing.

"Well-trained personnel help an operation to work productively, and we are able to support our customers in this area", says Erwin Lüber, PMC Managing Director.

In addition to finishing, PMC also has its own commercial printing plant.
