A clamping apparatus includes a support, a fixing shaft fixedly mounted on the support, a driving mechanism supported by the support, and at least two clamping assemblies positioned on the fixing shaft and the moving shaft. The driving mechanism includes a driving member fixed on the support, and a moving shaft assembled to the driving member. Each clamping assembly includes a first clamping member, a second clamping member, a first connecting member, and a second connecting member. The first clamping member and the second clamping member are pivotally coupled with the fixing shaft, the first connecting member is hinged with the first clamping member and the moving shaft, the second connecting member is hinged with the second clamping member and the moving shaft. The first clamping member and the second clamping member of each clamping assembly are capable of moving toward each other for clamping a workpiece.
