Manual handling is required, which leads to high labor intensity and affects production efficiency. In addition, during the feeding process of the feeding cart, the alloy falls into the medium frequency furnace at a fast speed as the material box is turned over, and it is easy to collide with the medium frequency furnace, thereby affecting the service life of the medium frequency furnace and increasing the production cost of repairing the medium frequency furnace.
