For improvement in production efficiency by elimination of a centering of an ingot supplier to an ingot supply opening upon reconnection of a melting and holding furnace to a die cast machine, there are provided an intermediate handler having a receiving case configured substantially in a channel shape open at both ends thereof, and pivoted on the furnace cover to be movable between a substantially horizontal lying position with one end thereof coincident with an ingot exit of the preheater to allow for a preheated ingot to be forward therein in a lying position with a longitudinal axis thereof set substantially horizontal and a substantially vertical standing position with the other end thereof coincident with the ingot supply opening to bring a distal end of the preheated ingot forwarded therein into abutment with the shutter to make the preheated ingot stand thereon, and an ingot supplier having a pawl chuck configured to enter inside the receiving case from an open side of the receiving case in the substantially vertical standing position, to be pressed against a rear end part of the preheated ingot as accommodated, and attached to, for a vertically guiding by, a drive mechanism fixed at a base end thereof to the furnace cover, and adapted for the shutter to be opened and the pawl chuck to be lowered to supply the preheated ingot into the melding and holding furnace.
