ProMD CNC Centre for Edging, Milling and Drilling
Edging, Milling & Drilling with optional waterjet technology
The Systron ProMD vertical glass processing centre is a powerful all-in-one solution designed for maximum precision and efficiency – with minimal handling.
All processing steps in a single machine:
- One-time clamping – ready for a finished product with the highest dimensional accuracy
- Seaming, milling, countersinking, grinding, and polishing of external and internal contours
- Milling & Drilling (MD) – holes and cut-outs using drilling and milling tools
- Optional: cut-outs using waterjet technology
The ProMD is a highly efficient solution for both series production and one-off pieces. Especially when it comes to drilling, cut-outs, and special shapes, the system excels with ultra-short cycle times, a high level of automation, and stable processes – even when processing demanding low-E glass.
Capability
Designed for Every Glass Processing Challenge
- Seaming (RAW EDGE), grinding and polishing of internal and external contours
- Double-sided drilling and countersinking
- Milling of cut-outs
- Optional: Waterjet technology
Patented Water Cushion for Ultimate Processing Stability
The patented water cushion of the ProMD introduces a new dimension in glass processing: CONTACT-FREE, VIBRATION-DAMPED and highly PRECISE. The glass is gently yet firmly pressed against the roller wall – without mechanical contact. This protects sensitive surfaces and effectively dampens vibrations. The result: superior edge quality without chipping. Thanks to consistent tool cooling across the entire processing zone, process reliability is maintained even during long production runs. The water cushion automatically adapts to the glass surface, even in the case of shape deviations or dimensional tolerances – ensuring continuous edge parallelism and significantly reduced tool wear.
Highlights
- Automatic positioning of glass sheets – accurate and operator-free, even for special shapes
- Intuitive machine operation via graphical interface – simple and user-friendly
- Rear-side bar magazine for 10 tool holders
- Two optional front-mounted tool changers on the Y-axis for up to 80 tools with 62 mm tool package width
- EASY MODE for rectangular glass – automatic measurement and processing
- Automatic DXF file handling – no programming skills required
- Tool measurement and profiling with virtually no cycle time loss – parallel processing during glass changeover
- Optional patented waterjet technology – high-precision cutting of even the most complex contours

Local support
3S supports Systron customers across Australia and New Zealand from the very first conversation.
We take the time to understand your current operation, identify pain points and bottlenecks, and understand what you want to achieve both now and into the future. We work with you to determine the right solution, providing as little or as much support as you need.
That can include production layouts, machinery selection and configuration, factory redesigns and upgrades, installation, commissioning and operator training.
Our support continues long after installation, with ongoing technical support, preventative maintenance and spare parts, backed by our direct link to Systron.
We’re here for the journey, from the first conversation to long-term support after your machine has been commissioned.
