The utility model relates to the technical field of
optical fiber manufacturing, in particular to a preform rod clamping device which comprises a lifting part mounted on a platform, an arc plate fixed at the moving end of the lifting part, a through hole formed in the arc plate, a
metal positioning ball arranged on the arc plate and tangent to the through hole, an
insertion hole formed in the
metal positioning ball and used for inserting a preform rod, and a clamping part arranged on the lifting part and used for clamping the preform rod. And a locking piece arranged on the outer side of the
metal positioning ball is used for fixing. According to the preform rod clamping device, the bolt with the rubber head is arranged as a locking piece, so that clamping marks on the surface of a preform rod are avoided, the product quality is protected, the arc plate is lifted by utilizing the linear module, and a structure that a metal positioning ball is tangent to a through hole is matched, so that natural vertical falling is realized, and collimation and
vertical motion tests of the preform rod are ensured; the
refractive index performance of the preform is analyzed, vertical and accurate positioning of the preform is facilitated, test result deviation is reduced, and therefore the structure is relatively simple, operation is convenient, and production detection requirements are met.
