COMPU-TRONIC
for forward-looking management
The realm of automation is expanding fast. It is a new, unfamiliar world in which many managements may think that computors and their like are too advanced, too complicated for them.
Those who have investigated it, however, have found that the introduction of automatic processing equipment to businessos (not necessarily large ones) can bring great savings in time, space and labour costs. The new National Compu- Tronic is such a machine. Electronically it computes, checks, records and integrates all types of accounting or processing work acting on given instructions.
See how the Compu-tronic works and what it can do For YOU, at the H.O.E.A. Exhibition, 17th to 21st October, at the Península Hotel,
