The reaming cylinder is connected to the workbench, and the reaming block is connected to the output shaft of the reaming cylinder. The reaming cylinder can drive the reaming block to move.

9. An automated assembly method for an endoscope composite tube, characterized in that: Includes steps: S1: There is a single composite tube on the composite tube unloading platform, the first three-axis moving component drives the first clamping jaw cylinder to move along the three axes to the composite tube unloading platform, the first clamping jaw cylinder clamps the composite tube on the composite tube unloading platform, the reaming cylinder drives the reaming block to insert into the composite tube to expand the composite tube, and the glue-coating jaw cylinder glues the bending component; S2: The first three-axis moving assembly drives the first clamping claw cylinder to move along the three axes and pass through the threading seat to the composite pipe fixing claw cylinder, the composite pipe fixing claw cylinder fixes the composite pipe, and the wire block pushing cylinder drives the wire block pushing piece to push the wire block of the bending assembly to the expanded composite pipe and make the magnetic suction block attract the wire block; S3: The threading linear module drives the threading seat to move, and drives the wire block to move in the composite tube through the effect of magnetic attraction until the bending component moves to its own glue coating position and contacts the composite tube.

10. The automated assembly method of an endoscope composite tube according to claim 9, characterized in that: In step S1, before there is a single composite tube in the composite tube unloading table, there are several composite tubes in the unloading channel of the composite tube storage table and the intercepting plate located below is initially located in the unloading channel, the intercepting cylinder located above drives the intercepting plate located above to enter the unloading channel, and the intercepting cylinder located below drives the intercepting plate located below to exit the unloading channel, so that the single composite tube falls into the composite tube unloading table, the intercepting cylinder located below drives the intercepting plate located below to enter the unloading channel, and the intercepting cylinder located above drives the intercepting plate located above to exit the unloading channel.
