[0041] The material distribution structure 3 has two identical first and second feeding positions, which are symmetrically arranged within the structure. Both positions can rotate, allowing for alternating use and ensuring uninterrupted material distribution. Specifically, when there is thin material on the first feeding position, the pushing structure 4 can decompose it, leaving the second feeding position empty. The transfer structure 2 can then add the thin material to the second feeding position. Once the material on the first feeding position has been decomposed, the material distribution structure 3 can rotate, switching between the first and second feeding positions.

[0042] The transfer structure 1 is used to store thin parts, and the transfer structure 2 is located below the transfer structure 1. The first loading position is located below the transfer structure 2.
