General Automation Inc. of Anaheim plans to begin selling several of its printed circuit board-level computer products to original equipment manufacturers for the first time. This means that other companies will be able to buy these GA products and build them into their own computer systems.

“We’ll be releasing right away several board-level products and communication products, such as the Local Area Network controllers, as well as certain communication facilities that allow GA’s Zebra computers to communicate with GA’s minicomputer products,” said Donald Heitt, vice president and general manager of GA’s computer group, in a statement Wednesday.

Heitt said GA’s fully configured Zebra microcomputers will continue to be sold by a network of dealers.

A GA spokesman said the company has sold computer systems to other manufacturers in the past, but not the board-level products.

General Automation is a worldwide supplier of high technology computer products. The company’s Zebra computer division specializes in commercial data processing; the minicomputer division specializes in industrial and financial automation. The components group makes multilayer printed circuit boards and power supplies.
