The Charger takes the material from the Loading/Unloading Station and sets it down on the supports located on the base of the Box Furnace. Once the charge material is placed on the base, the Furnace door closes and the material heating cycle starts.
Once heating is finished, the Furnace door opens, allowing the Charger to pick up the charge material and immediately place it in the Quench Tank. Once the quenching process is complete, the Charger takes the charge material out of the Quench Tank and places it on the Loading/Unloading Station.
