History

Province Automation began under the leadership of owner, James Heald in 1979. The company served the digital imaging industry as well as wire-tie manufacturers and even biomedical companies. Some of its clients included Fortune 500 companies like Corning, Inc., Kodak and Avery Dennison. 

In 2005 when the owner decided to retire, long-time employee, Dan Richer, bought the company, providing a continuity of service to our existing clients while adding other products and services to serve the needs of new clients. Today Province Automation continues to provide automation solutions for businesses in southern Maine and throughout North America.
