The clamping disc 10 is a fixed structure, and there are various specifications according to the electrode specifications. Each time, the corresponding clamping disc is clamped on the chuck according to the electrode specification to drive the electrode. Since the electrode is a pressure type welding, the coaxiality error of the whole electrode is large, and the driving rotation is easy to cause the chuck at the other end of the electrode to swing.
