The top of the boom side plate is positioned by a positioning protrusion at one end of the boom and a positioning core 4 at the other end. After the boom cover plate, boom side plate, and boom bottom plate are positioned, one end is tightened by the tail frame clamping mechanism 7, and the other end is pressed by the head frame rolling mechanism 8. The head frame rolling mechanism 8 can follow and cooperate with the spot welding robot to complete the spot welding work of the boom, thereby completing the pre-assembly of the boom.
