A material handling system is presented having a frame member and a pair of fork members that form a holding area configured to receive sheet stock therein. The sheet stock includes a plurality of parts that are connected by small tabs of material. The material handling system is used to remove the sheet stock from a cutting tool and dislodge the parts from the sheet stock by impacting the sheet stock with the fork members by rotation or movement of the forks. This arrangement eliminates the need to remove individual parts from a cutting tool, and instead allows for removal of the sheet stock and parts in a single operation thereby improving the utilization rate of the cutting tool and streamlining the manufacturing process.
