1. Basic Function
A robot ingot stacking machine is an automated industrial device designed to efficiently stack
metal ingots (such as aluminum) into organized piles for storage, transportation, or further processing.
Here are its key functions and features based on the search results:
1. Automated Stacking:
The aluminum ingot casting conveyor machine replaces manual labor by autonomously picking up cooled ingots from a
conveyor or cooling line and arranging them into pre-programmed stack patterns (e.g., alternating layers at 90°
or 180° angles for stability).
2. Precision and Efficiency:
• Equipped with robotic arms (e.g., 4-axis robots) and grippers, it ensures high-speed, repeatable
stacking with minimal errors.
• Some systems integrate PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) for precise motion control and
layer counting.
3. Safety and Labor Reduction:
• Eliminates hazards associated with manual handling of heavy (e.g., 20kg+) or hot ingots
(>100°C).
Reduces workforce requirements (e.g., from 3–4 workers to 1).
4. Customizable Stacking Patterns:
• Configurable for different ingot sizes and layer arrangements (e.g., 11-layer stacks with
alternating orientations).
• Some systems feature flipping mechanisms to interlock ingots securely.
6. Compatibility with Production Lines:
Works seamlessly with casting, cooling, and conveyor systems, forming a continuous
automated workflow.
Applications: Primarily used in aluminum foundries, electrolytic plants, and metal recycling
facilities.

Technical Features |
| 1 |
Six-axis servo motor drive, low running noise, stable operation, low failure rate, high stacking precision , using Japan Kawasaki robot. |
| 2 |
High working efficiency, 3-5 times efficiency of traditional ingot stacking. It can realize synchronous ingot stacking of 1 or 2 casting machines, saving user costs. |
| 3 |
It occupies a small area and has various installation methods, which can realize multi-point grabbing and multi-point stacking. |
| 4 |
use 6.4 inch color LCD display, highly sensitive touch screen, simple and intuitive operation interface, and proficient operation can be achieved after half an hour of training . |
| 5 |
Handheld/embedded robot controller: users can set the number of stacking layers and rotation angle according to their needs , and can store tens of thousands of program. |
| 6 |
It can be used reliably in an ambient temperature of -25℃~50℃ and in dust and oil mist environments. |
|
7
|
The stacking robot group adopts program control throughout the whole process. Complete and easy maintenance: 0 Degree, 90 Degree, 180 Degree, 270 Degree (or 0 Degree, 90 degree). The flatness of the four corners of the whole bundle is guaranteed . |
|
8
|
The number of stacking layers can be set arbitrarily within the agreed range, and the stacking height is consistent. The application of servo motor transmission device in the motion mechanism makes the operation of the equipment more stable, reliable and accurate. It brings great convenience to the use and future maintenance, simple and low-cost operation. |
| 9 |
The gripper of the ingot casting machine opening distance is increased to prevent damage to the robot due to the deviation of the aluminum ingot. |
| 10 |
The ingot grabbing mechanism adopts the clamping and supporting type to avoid the ingot falling due to the length difference of the casting ingots. |
| 11 |
The grabbing speed is adjustable. |
