The invention discloses a five-axis hub transfer robot and a clamping manipulator. An X-axis drive system is mounted on a truss. A Y-axis drive system is mounted on the X-axis drive system in a crossing manner through an X-Y-axis connecting plate. A Z-axis drive system is vertically mounted on the Y-axis drive system through a Y-Z-axis connecting plate. The X-axis drive system, the Y-axis drive system and the Z-axis drive system are mutually orthogonal, and an X-Y-Z rectangular-coordinate robot is formed. A C-axis drive system and an A-axis drive system are disposed in order at the bottom of the Z-axis drive system. The C-axis drive system is connected with the A-axis drive system through a C-A-axis connecting flange. An output shaft of the A-axis drive system is connected with the clamping manipulator. The five-axis hub transfer robot and the clamping manipulator have the advantages that operations such as carrying, feeding, discharging, turning and interchanging among different production lines are automated for aluminum alloy hubs, labor intensity is greatly reduced, product quality is ensured, production efficiency is improved, and unattended automated production is achieved for different hub processing units on one hub production line.
