After the processing is completed, the clamping cylinder 75 is controlled to work and reset, and the unloading cylinder 55 is controlled to work and extend, driving the ejecting block 54 to move upward. Under the action of the inclined surface of the ejecting block 54, the branch pipe 9 is first ejected from the groove on the support 63. Under the separation effect of the gravity of the branch pipe 9, the branch pipe 9 slides along the inclined surface and falls on the unloading rack 51, completing the unloading of the branch pipe 9. At this point, a group of drilling operations of the branch pipe 9 is completed. Repeating the above steps can continuously perform drilling on the branch pipe 9.
