The clamping tool 3011 is used to clamp the industrial fuel rod 6. When the clamping tool 3011 does not need to clamp the fuel rod, it moves away from the industrial fuel rod 6 to avoid blocking the mover assembly 3010 due to the extension of the clamping tool 3011. 01 normal movement; wherein, the clamping fixture 3011 of at least one of the two mover assemblies 301 clamps the end of the industrial fuel rod 6, and the clamping fixture 3011 is used to clamp the end of the industrial fuel rod 6 away from the processing station to prevent the end of the industrial fuel rod 6 away from the processing station from being swung and colliding with other components due to processing to damage the surface.
