[0009] According to the aforementioned clamping device for processing ceramic tubes, both the upper and lower clamping pads are arc-shaped and are made of TPU material.

[0010] According to the aforementioned clamping device for ceramic tube processing, the upper plate is fixedly connected to the fixing rod by an upper bolt, and the lower plate is fixedly connected to the fixing rod by a lower bolt.
