Furnace cart assembly and system for loading high temperature vacuum furnaces for treating heavy target material, for example, massive metal parts, under extreme temperature and vacuum environments. The furnace cart includes electrical heating elements as an integral part of the cart, which elements are adapted for releasable connection to the furnace electrical supply. When so connected the furnace cart heating elements can form a part of the heating system of the furnace. The furnace cart can be delivered to the furnace on a separate transfer cart adapted to carry the furnace cart to the furnace opening thereby assisting the positioning of the furnace cart for entry into the furnace. The system for loading the furnace includes loading target material on the furnace cart outside the furnace for transfer of the cart with load of target material into the furnace.
