[0030] The multi-station fixing device of the present application can have three clamping fixing modes. Firstly, the workpiece can be clamped by the cooperation of the corresponding first clamping assembly 5 and second clamping assembly 8. Secondly, the workpiece can be clamped by the convergence of the second clamping assemblies 8. Thirdly, the workpiece can be clamped by the convergence of the first clamping assemblies 5. When fixed by the first mode, multiple workpieces can be clamped simultaneously. However, due to the small spacing between the first clamping assembly 5 and the second clamping assembly 8, only small-sized workpieces can be clamped. When fixed by the second mode, a slightly larger workpiece can be fixed at the center position. When fixed by the third mode, a larger workpiece can be fixed at the center position. Therefore, the device can be used to fix workpieces of different sizes, and has high practicability and flexibility.
