Existing CNC machine tools require parts to be fixed by clamping devices during use to improve the stability of the parts. However, when using general clamping devices, parts need to be placed on the clamping devices manually, which poses a great safety hazard. At the same time, general clamping devices directly clamp and fix parts rigidly, so parts are easily squeezed and damaged, which can easily affect the quality of parts.

The utility model can enable the fixed plate to drive the pallet to push the parts upward to between the fixed plates on both sides while clamping the parts, so that the workers only need to place the parts on the pallet to enable the device to automatically load and clamp the parts, and there is no need to manually place the parts between the two fixed plates, thereby ensuring the safety of the workers, and the device can buffer the force of the fixed plate squeezing the parts through a plurality of springs, thereby avoiding the fixed plate directly rigidly squeezing the parts to cause damage to the parts, thereby ensuring the quality of the parts.

[0004] There are still some shortcomings in the patent application. The structural design of the patent is reasonable, but the clamping tool of the patent has limitations. When clamping the cylindrical shell workpiece, the force is relatively single and it cannot clamp in two directions. When the tool of the CNC machine tool applies force to the workpiece, the workpiece is easy to fall over and its stability is low. Therefore, a clamping device for CNC machine tools is needed to solve these problems. Utility Model Content

[0026] In this embodiment, the clamping motor 61 can drive the screw rod 63 to rotate, and the screw rod 63 acts on the screw hole 641 of the clamping plate.
