I-PRESS® & Automation Controls was the brainchild of Mark Sutherland in 1999. I-PRESS® was conceived at the Hannover Machine Tool Show in Germany. According to Mark, the control systems from major press builders were just too complex, non-intuitive, and frankly intimidating.

In recent years, servo hydraulic presses have become increasingly popular in the manufacturing industry. These advanced machines, such as those offered by Sutherland Presses with their 4.0 I-PRESS and Automation controls, offer numerous benefits over traditional hydraulic and mechanical presses.
