I placed a wooden chest under the loader and iron plates in it. Nothing happened.
I tried to push the plates in he loader, broken machine, nothing happened.
Am I missing something?

The bit of transport belt at the end of the loader is supposed to be a clue.

This is not a bug.
I guess you are not connecting some facts in this game. Take a look at the compilatron belts, and how items do travel on them. It shouldn't be hard.
I guess, compilatron could give an extra hint if the objective is not completed in 3-4 minutes or something.

Played the scenario and although I am a player with hundreds of hours was stumped for a minute and tried to insert plates into the feeder by hand.
I assume my confusion was because of
1) previous steps being manual
2) a feeder being an unknown thingy and
3) compilatron saying "Feed Items here". Sounds very direct, very "call to action" instead of "call to automate".
"Have items delivered here" would make it more obvious, but maybe even too obvious.
