Problems solved by technology

[0012] However, using the method mentioned in the above invention, in the drilling of a large-diameter preform, because the weight of the preform itself is relatively large, and the preform needs to be rotated by 180°, the stability of the clamp is very high, and there are considerable problems in actual operation. Difficulty, making the symmetry of the perforated preform unsatisfactory
