China Aluminium Ingot Casting Line - Leading Suppliers and Factory for Efficient Production Solutions
Introduction
The aluminum ingot casting machine is specifically designed to cast molten aluminum liquid into ingots of the desired shape and size. It has the features of automatic distribution of aluminum liquid, adjustable ingot casting speed, automatic ingot stripping, high production efficiency, uniform weight of aluminum ingot and so on.
Aluminum scraps, old cans, cut sheets of car aluminum, aluminum chips, and dross are commonly used as raw materials in production lines. These practices offer significant environmental advantages, including efficient resource reuse, energy conservation, and a reduction in waste sent to landfills, as well as a decrease in environmental pollution risks.

Scope of Application
The aluminum ingot casting machine converts scrap aluminum into standard aluminum ingots by melting and casting and plays a vital role in the aluminum industry. It is an essential raw material for smelting plants, foundries and any plant that uses aluminum as its core material.
Main Parts
Ingot casting machine
The main frame of the ingot casting machine is made of international channel steel or rectangular tube, and all electrical products are international brands.
The ingot casting machine adopts aluminum liquid automatic distributor, and the weight of aluminum ingot is uniform. The frequency conversion control adopted can freely adjust the ingot speed (0-3.4m/min).
The ingot weight are 5kg, 6kg, 7kg, etc. The ingot models are designed according to different needs of the customers. Depending on the size of the ingot weight, the capacity of the ingot casting machine is 6.5-8t/h.
Gantry type ingot stacking machine
The gantry stacking machine completely replaced the manual ingot stacking. The whole process is controlled by PLC program, which can realize fully automatic or semi-automatic operation. It packages the aluminum ingots cast by the ingot casting machine and forms them neatly, which is easy to transport, thus improving work efficiency and liberating labor.
Robot stacking system
Use 4-axis / 6-axis stacking robots of imported brands (Kawasaki, Yaskawa, ABB, etc.) to ensure stable operation of the equipment. Compared with the gantry type ingot stacking machine, it does not need pit and occupies small area and the stacking of ingots of two casting machines can be realized in synchronization. Through the touch screen setting, the user can set the number of stacking layers at any time according to the order requirements during use, making the stacking more simple and flexible.
Automatic packing machine
The neatly stacked aluminum ingots are transported to the packing station, and automatic online packing is completed through the packing machine. It is efficient, intelligent, time-saving and labor-saving.
Automatic scraping, spraying robot
It is composed of 6-axis robot, PLC, scraper device, etc. The system has stable performance and low maintenance cost. At the same time, it runs synchronously with the ingot line to achieve fully automatic operation, completely replacing manual work, improving production efficiency, and avoiding safety accidents in which operators are burned by high-temperature aluminum liquid.
Automatic Aluminum Ash Treatment Equipment
When used with the aluminum melting furnace, it separates and recycles metalic aluminum from the ash produced during smelting. This increases aluminum's utilization rate, reduces losses, and lowers costs.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the production capacity of the aluminum ingot casting machine?
The production capacity typically ranges from 6.5 to 8 tons per hour (t/h), depending heavily on the specific weight and dimensions of the aluminum ingots being cast.
What raw materials can be processed in this casting system?
The system is highly versatile and handles various aluminum scraps, old cans, cut sheets of car aluminum, aluminum chips, and dross, making it ideal for resource recycling and waste reduction.
How is the casting speed controlled?
The machine utilizes advanced frequency conversion control, allowing operators to freely adjust the casting line speed anywhere from 0 to 3.4 meters per minute (m/min).
What cooling methods are used for the molds?
It adopts bottom-of-the-mold cooling using either water spray cooling or water immersion cooling methods to ensure rapid and uniform solidification of the molten aluminum.
Can the ingot weight and mold dimensions be customized?
Yes. The standard ingot weights can be configured to 5kg, 6kg, 7kg, or other custom weights. All mold specifications and configurations can be customized to meet specific client requirements.
What are the benefits of the robot stacking system over the gantry type?
The robot stacking system (using 4-axis or 6-axis units) requires no foundation pit, occupies a smaller footprint, and can synchronize stacking for two casting machines simultaneously. It also allows flexible adjustments of the stacking layers directly via a touch screen.
