Company profile


Our Success Story

1995 • APS Advanced Printing Systems was founded.

1996 • APS introduced the Mini Printer (MP), Low Power and Ultra Compact Series as well as Full Custom mechanisms. APS Enginee-ring was established in Paris, France.

1997 • The Compact Mid Range Printer mechanisms series was launched including 2 and 3-inch solutions with and without inte-grated controller boards. APS Industrial was established in Milan with the first production facility.

1998 • The Compact Mid Range Double Station series was added to the product family for cash registers and fiscal printers. APS America was established in California.

1999 • The APS patented Easy Loading system was ideated and applied to Ultra Low Cost and Easy Loading 2-inch mechanisms. Compact 4-inch Printers with and without control board complete the range of Single and Double Sta-tion mechanisms.

2000 • The APS product family was expan-ded to include the Smart Printer Line and Heavy Duty Easy Loading, Low Power, Low Voltage mechanisms.

2001 • APS Asia established in Taipei, Tai-wan.

2003 • APS introduced the first Super Small (SS) line of printers in the world. A second production facility was established in Bulga-ria.2004 • High Speed Fast Controller thermal prin-ter line, full customized products, Kiosk Com-pact Module design added to APS portfolio of solutions. Start-up of the new production faci-lity in Botevgrad, Bulgaria.

2005 • Pre-production of High Speed Fast Controller line as well as Kiosk Compact Module, High Speed Smart printer mechani-sms.

2006 • Fully customized printing solutions for Automotive and Medical applications.

2007 • APS Asia Pacific manufacturing facility established in Shanghai. APS introduced the HSP (Heavy Duty High Speed) Line and com-pleted KM (Kiosk Module) Series.

2009 • APS Manufacturing Eood set up the R&D department, as well as its headquarters and cu-stomer service offices in Sofia, Bulgaria.

2011 • APS took up a new challenge: the APS Taipei (Taiwan) office that to be responsible for conception, design and production for all APS controller boards.

2012 • Complying with the new standards: APS acquired the new ISO certificate required by the automotive sector: ISO/TS 16949:2009.
