The SCM Sergiani GSL-A is a specialized automatic press for continuous edge-glued beam panel production. It is designed for manufacturers producing edge-glued panels, beam panels, multi-row glued panels, timber components, structural wood product assemblies, and glued wood components where automatic handling and repeatable pressure control are required.

The machine’s strongest production feature is its pressure architecture. Three separate hydraulic power units allow the vertical, horizontal, and rear pressure thrust to be adjusted independently. This gives operators a better way to tune the pressing process around panel thickness, glue system, open time, product construction, and target production output.

The GSL-A is designed with automatic loading, unloading, and panel composition. Several loading solutions can be reviewed depending on the edge-glued panel workflow, and optional pneumatic stops can be added for multi-row panel composition. This positions the machine as a production-line press rather than a standalone manual clamping station.

SCM lists GSL-A 25-13, GSL-A 30-13, and GSL-A 35-13 sizes, with platen dimensions of 2500 × 1300 mm, 3000 × 1300 mm, and 3500 × 1300 mm. For 40 mm maximum suggested working thickness, vertical thrust ranges from 38.4 to 57.6 tons, side thrust ranges from 7.5 to 10.5 tons, and pressure bar is listed at 30 tons. For 60 mm maximum suggested working thickness, vertical thrust ranges from 38.4 to 80 tons, side thrust ranges from 7.5 to 28 tons, and pressure bar remains 30 tons.
