The other one of the above-mentioned pipe end holders 2 is arranged at the other end of the above-mentioned chassis 1 and is rotated through the above-mentioned mobile frame 4 connected thereto. Installed inside the above-mentioned chassis 1, the above-mentioned movable frame 4 can move along the extension direction of the two ends of the above-mentioned chassis 1, the two above-mentioned pipe end fixers 2 are used to fix the two ends of the pipe 8 respectively, the above-mentioned pipe support mechanism 6 is arranged inside the above-mentioned chassis 1, and is located below between the two above-mentioned pipe end fixers 2, and is used to support the pipe. The above-mentioned grinding assembly 5 is installed on the inner wall of the above-mentioned chassis 1, and is used to grind the outer surface of the pipe 8. The above-mentioned mechanical arm is arranged outside the above-mentioned chassis 1, and is used to grab the pipe and place it on the pipe support mechanism 6 inside the above-mentioned chassis 1, or grab and take out the pipe 8 placed on the above-mentioned pipe support mechanism 6.

[0026] The usage process is as follows:

[0027] Open the box cover 19, grab a pipe 8 from outside the chassis 1 by the robotic arm and place it at the upper end of the pipe support mechanism 6 inside the chassis 1 (pre-adjust the orientation and height of the pipe support mechanism 6). Next, adjust the position of the moving frame 4 according to the pipe length so that the two pipe end fixators 2 are respectively located at both ends of the pipe 8. Then, fix the two pipe end fixators 2 to both ends of the pipe 8. After that, the pipe support mechanism 6 moves back to its original position and leaves the pipe 8. Close the box cover 19, start the rotation drive mechanism 3 to drive the pipe 8 to rotate, and at the same time, use the grinding assembly 5 to approach the pipe 8 to grind the surface of the pipe 8.

[0029] In the above-mentioned implementation scheme, the port of the pipe 8 is sleeved outside the inner ring 21, and the plurality of clamping blocks 23 are located inside the pipe 8. Then, turn the plurality of adjusting screws 24 until each clamping block 23 radially moves outward to abut against the inner side of the pipe 8. During the adjustment process, ensure that the pipe 8 is coaxial with the inner ring 21. After the clamping block 23 tightly abuts against the inner side of the pipe 8, the pipe 8 is completed to be clamped and fixed from the inside. Next, start the rotation drive mechanism 3 to drive the pipe 8 to rotate.

[0030] It should be emphasized that: an inspection opening is provided at one end of the chassis 1 corresponding to the pipe end fixator 2. The pipe end fixator 2 passes through this inspection opening.
