Robotic Solutions for the Aluminium Industry
Robotic and automated solutions designed to reduce repetitive work, improve safety and support efficient aluminium processing in demanding industrial environments.
Automated In-Situ Metal Transfer Launder Paddling System
Our Smart Launder Paddling System is an advanced solution designed for precise and efficient molten metal handling in high-temperature environments ranging from 700°C to 1000°C. Equipped with a robotic arm, it ensures consistent and accurate paddling pressure and pushes molten metal into the launder to the casting house.
- User-friendly interface
- Easy parameter setting and performance monitoring
- Adjustable paddling pressure for process customisation
- Real-time monitoring and automatic adjustments
- Designed for diverse process requirements
Computer Vision Aided Online Robotic Anode Butt Cleaning System
Our AI-Guided Robotic Anode Butt & Stub Cleaning System is an advanced automated solution for efficient and precise anode cleaning. Vision camera inspection captures the anode butt's shape and generates 3D data for accurate cleaning guidance. The 3D data processing software translates visual data into precise robotic movements.
- Robotic arm with chain-beating tool for surface cleaning
- PLC-controlled lighting for vision-based cleaning
- Upgraded industrial controller for performance and reliability
- Less manual intervention and improved operational safety
Remotely Operated AlF₃ Bath Charger Vehicle
The AlF₃ Charger is a specialised Remotely Operated Vehicle engineered for efficient and safe smelter operations. It features a robust ROV base, an advanced robotic arm with precision control and a hopper equipped with a screw feeder mechanism for secure and accurate feeding of AlF₃ into smelter pots.
- Flexible movement via the advanced robotic arm
- Consistent material flow via the screw feeder
- Designed for user safety and process optimisation
- Increased operational efficiency
Robotic Ingot Dross Skimming System
Our Robotic ICM Dross Skimming System is an advanced automated solution for efficient dross removal from molten aluminium baths. Equipped with a precision robotic arm and specialised skimming tool, it collects and removes solidified aluminium oxide and impurities to ensure clean metal surfaces.
- Robotic arm securely lifts the skimming tool
- Transfers dross to the skimming conveyor for safe disposal
- Consistent operation with reduced manual intervention
- Effective dross skimming in high-temperature environments
Remotely Operated Aluminium Smelter Pot Crust Breaking Vehicle
The Crust Breaker ROV is an advanced, remotely operated vehicle engineered for high-temperature smelter environments of 700–900°C. It is a battery-powered, fully insulated ROV designed to ensure worker safety and avoid manual furnace operations.

- Ability to operate down to -2.5 metres
- Fully enclosed electronic system for harsh conditions
Remotely Operated Aluminium Smelter Pot Maintenance Vehicle
The Pot Maintenance Ladder is a robust and reliable solution engineered for safe and efficient maintenance of smelter pots. Designed to securely accommodate two personnel at a time, the ladder provides optimal reach to the top of the pot for inspections, repairs and cleaning.
- Easy performance of maintenance tasks
- Enhanced safety features
- Essential tool for maintaining operational safety
- Supports worker safety in high-temperature environments
Sludge Cleaning
The SCE Sludge Cleaning ROV – Electric handles fine particulate sludge in cooling channels and decantation units with precision and minimal disruption. The SCH Sludge Cleaning ROV – Hydraulic tackles thick, abrasive sludge in caustic environments such as clarifiers and red mud pits. RHINO is a heavy-duty crawler for large-scale sludge removal from high-load zones.
- Useful for tank residue, red mud and cooling pit sludge
- Reduced manual intervention
- Improved cleaning cycles
- Supports safe and sustainable aluminium processing
