Automatic Stacker Machine
AS a regular auxiliary equipment to roll forming line, an auto stacking machine or auto stacker is placed at the end of production lines to stack the final cut sheets automatically.
For a standard roll forming machine, there is an un-powered exittables equipped at the end to support the final products, and it's necessary to place operators to take finished products off the run-out tables and stacking manually.
While an auto stacker at the end of roll forming lines will save customers for extra labors who take off and stack the the finished roll formed products at the end of production lines.
An auto stacker or stacking machine has been builtwith two main parts: Supporting part and Transportation part. The Supporting part are composed of many arms which is working under pneumatic power to close up and open down so that the roll formed products or the cut metal sheets can drop down to the transportation part which is made of steel frames with many tubes mounted and the part is working with motor power so that the stacked sheets can be moved out and transported to warehouse with a forklift.
Limit or proximity switches are used to control an auto stacker or auto stacking machine. Simply speaking, when the roll formed products or cut metal sheets are pushed to the stacking machine and touch the upper switch, the arms will open down and the sheets will drop down accordingly;when the arms open down to the lower switch, they will close up.
There are usually two lengths for auto stackers, 6meters and 12 meters for stacking roll formed products or cut metal sheet with different lengths.With an auto stacker, only one operator is enough to run a roll forming line, while two or three employee at least are needed for a roll forming machine with traditional no-power run out tables.

Auxiliary equipment is relatively not as big as the whole roll forming line or insulated sandwich panel production line. It can be just a small separate part of the above lines, like the decoiler, auto stacker and embossing machines. Small as it is, in some occassions, auxiliary equipment is indispensable to the whole production.
Related Auxiliary Equipment
Most of time, some auxiliary equipment are necessary for roll former and sandwich panel line, for example, metal embossing machine, hydraulic decoiler (5tons, 10tons with a coll car), and a hydraulic curving machine etc.
