The material is then loaded for frame processing. After processing, the material is manually disassembled and the frame removed for unloading. However, most material installation, disassembly, and loading / unloading are done manually, which is not only labor-intensive but also inefficient. Summary of the Invention

[0211] The return mechanism 22 conveys the return carrier 221 containing the second material 300 to the bottom of the pressing assembly 241. The pressing assembly 241 presses the return carrier 221 and the second material 300 together. The disassembly assembly 242 extends upward into the return carrier 221 pressed by the pressing assembly 241 and disassembles the second material 300 on the return carrier 221, thereby obtaining the processed workpiece 330 and the fixture 220.

[0212] The return mechanism 22 transports the return carrier 221 containing the disassembled second material 300 to the workpiece unloading and transfer mechanism 25. The workpiece unloading and transfer mechanism 25 clamps the processed workpiece 330 on the return carrier 221 and places it on the workpiece receiving and dispatching unit 30 for unloading.

[0213] The cleaning mechanism 29 cleans the fixture 220 on the return carrier 221 that removes the processed workpiece 330; the workpiece loading and transfer mechanism 26 clamps the unprocessed workpiece 230 and places the unprocessed workpiece 230 into the clamping area 2212 of the return carrier 221, wherein the unclamping area 2211 of the return carrier 221 holds the cleaned fixture 220.

[0214] The return mechanism 22 moves the return carrier 221 containing the unprocessed workpiece 230 to the connecting flip assembly 271.

[0215] The return mechanism 22 transports the return carrier 221 to the lifting assembly 272. The lifting assembly 272 lifts the return carrier 221 from bottom to top to the shaping assembly 273. The shaping assembly 273 holds the opposite sides of the unprocessed workpiece 230 to shape the four sides of the unprocessed workpiece 230. The mounting assembly 274 guides the first locking member 210 to the connection position of the fixture 220 and the unprocessed workpiece 230 and locks the fixture 220 and the unprocessed workpiece 230 to form the first material 200.

[0216] The return mechanism 22 conveys the first material 200 on the return carrier 221 to the combined flipping assembly 275, which clamps the first material 200 and flips it.

[0217] The material unloading and transfer mechanism 28 picks up the first material 200 and places the first material 200 on the tray of the material loading port 112. After the tray is full, the material conveying mechanism 14 conveys the first material 200 from top to bottom for loading.
