In the above scheme, the bolts and the pressure cover are connected through an axial groove hole, and the coaxiality of the pressure cover and the bolts is difficult to control. For large-sized thin-walled workpieces with high-precision requirements, an increase in the bolt length will also cause the coaxiality of the mandrel base and the pressure cover to decrease, ultimately causing the coaxiality of both ends of the workpiece to decrease; the above-mentioned defects are problems that need to be urgently solved by technical personnel in this field.
