Chris Round

Passion and excitement of finding new opportunities is why Chris Round is on this earth. His life has been a bit of a roller coaster – quite literally his wife sold them. Two things give him purpose – taking care of his family and bringing companies together with the common goal of having a successful relationship. With 20+ years’ experience in the conveyor industry, understanding the automation market is second nature for Chris, so his role of Business development and marketing at the employee owned Glide-Line suits him perfectly. In his free time, Chris is on the marketing committee for the Robotics Industry of America but more often than not you will find him huddled in a corner of a Starbucks.

Assembly equipment, such as conveyors and workstations, presents a particularly difficult challenge to configure. Designs must accommodate existing building layout and structural elements, while providing an ergonomic workspace for operators, and of course, meeting the needs of the manufacturing or assembly process.
