GS-MR Robotics, a leading UK-based designer and manufacturer of robotic automation solutions, has further solidified its position in the glass industry with the installation of two additional PRO:Load systems at Press Glass UK’s state-of-the-art facility in Port Talbot, South Wales.

These cutting-edge systems automate the loading of insulated glass units (IGUs) onto LiSEC Automated Flexible Spacer IG manufacturing lines, significantly enhancing efficiency and productivity.

The PRO:Load system, a recent winner of the Robotics and Automation 2024 Industrial Innovation award and patented in both the UK and the USA (with further global patents pending), addresses the increasing demand within the domestic IGU market. Its implementation at Press Glass UK replaces the traditional manual glass loading process, resulting in substantial improvements in speed, accuracy, and overall output.

This latest installation builds upon a long-standing relationship between GS-MR and Press Glass UK, dating back to 2018. As Robert Owen, Director of GS-MR, notes, “Our initial discussions with Press Glass UK highlighted the challenges facing many glass processors. Press Glass UK’s continued adoption of GS-MR’s automation solutions demonstrates their commitment to industry leadership and proactive adaptation to evolving market demands.”

GS-MR’s approach centers on providing bespoke, cost-effective, and proactive automation solutions tailored to specific client needs. Unlike many industry solutions that adhere to pre-conceived notions, GS-MR focuses on understanding individual customer requirements and delivering tangible returns on investment. This customer-centric approach, coupled with their expertise and innovative technology, has made GS-MR a trusted partner for glass manufacturers globally.

As a Kawasaki Robotics UK Preferred Integrator and a member of the US National Glass Association, GS-MR leverages a strong network of industry partnerships to deliver high-quality, reliable solutions. The successful deployment of the PRO:Load systems at Press Glass UK underscores the effectiveness of this collaborative approach and the transformative power of robotic automation in modern glass manufacturing.
