A Piler can both stack and unstack items. The stacking occurs when the itemsenter the Piler from its lowerend.
An Automatic Piler can stack or unstack items. The stacking occurs when the belt enters the Piler from its smaller side, unpiling happens when it enters from the larger side.

After setting up the Automatic Piler on the conveyor belt, it can automatically integrate two consecutive cargos into one, which greatly improves the carrying capacity of the conveyor belt.

Summary
An Automatic Piler can stack or unstack items. The stacking occurs when the belt enters the Piler from its smaller side, unpiling happens when it enters from the larger side.
To pile items two consecutive items have to follow directly on the entering belt. Only items of the same type can be combined into one stack.
Two double-stacked cargos can be stacked again into a four-stack. Triple-stack can be created from a double-stack followed by an unstacked cargo, or vice-versa. The maximum stack limit is a 4-stack.
When unstacking, a double-stack will be split into single items, one coming directly after another, a 4-stack will be split into two 2-stacks, and a 3-stack will be split into a 2-stack and a single item.
Automatic Pilers can be stacked one onto another. The baseline stacking limit is 7, increased by 3 per each level of the Vertical Construction upgrade, up to the maximum of 25.

Reducing Belt speed in steps result in a 4 stack after just 2 Automatic Pilers. Example Below.
