Integrated Ingot Casting and Stacking Equipment

Our integrated ingot casting and stacking equipment is designed to offer a compact, efficient solution for converting molten aluminum into neat, strapped ingot stacks with minimal floor space and maximum automation. The line features a chain‑driven mold conveyor with cast‑steel cavities that produce uniform 10‑30 kg ingots. After casting, the ingots pass through a multi‑stage cooling section that combines water immersion and air blowing to achieve consistent metallurgical structure. A unique turning mechanism flips each ingot for easy inspection, then aligns them in single file for the robot station. The high‑payload robot, equipped with a parallel‑jaw gripper, picks up to four ingots at a time and places them in a predetermined layer pattern, optimizing pallet space and stack stability. An automatic banding unit then secures the stack with polyester or steel straps. The control system includes remote access for diagnostics and predictive maintenance, reducing unplanned downtime.
