Abstract
A melting work device and a melting work method by which work can be easily performed on a melting furnace without a worker approaching the melting furnace. A melting work device performs work on a melt obtained by melting a material in a melting furnace. The melting work device has a drive mechanism; and a plurality of work tools that are operated by the drive mechanism; wherein the drive mechanism is able to move the work tools in an arbitrary direction at an arbitrary location above the melting furnace.
Claims28
A melting work device for performing work on a melt obtained by melting a material in a melting furnace, the melting work device comprising:
- a drive mechanism;
- and
- a plurality of work tools that are operated by the drive mechanism;
- wherein the drive mechanism is able to move the work tools in an arbitrary direction at an arbitrary location above the melting furnace;
