The axial displacement mechanism is used to control the axial displacement of the centering mechanism 20 within the hollow cavities of the plurality of hollow rotors.

Through the arrangement of the structure, when a plurality of hollow revolving bodies which are arranged in pairs along the axial direction are coaxially positioned, the first hollow revolving body which needs to be coaxially positioned is firstly placed on the tooling reference panel 301, the centering mechanism 20 is controlled by the axial displacement mechanism to extend into the hollow cavity of the hollow revolving body, and the hollow revolving body is firstly positioned on the tooling reference panel 301 by matching the positioning action of the tooling positioning assembly.
