Glen Arm, MD (November 10, 2021)—SUN Automation Group (SUN), a global leader in providing innovative solutions to the global corrugated industry, is proud to announce it has placed Latitude Machinery Corporations (LMC) Jumbo Rotary Die Cutter (RDC) P-Series at Gerrity Corrugated Paper Products Ltd. in Concord, Ontario.

Gerrity chose the LMC Jumbo P-Series RDC because of its size, LMCs reputation for quality and SUN Automation Groups reputation for service and support.

We needed to replace an older machine of similar size and the LMC Jumbo RDC fits perfectly into our bay and customer mix,” says Chris Maisonneuve, Operations Manager of Gerrity.  From delivery, to install and service, everything has gone well and we couldn’t be happier with our experience and the machines output.
