ABSTRACT:
A portable electrically powered clamp application tool has a bench mounting kit with a foot pedal control for bench work. The tool has two grippers which enable a powered clamp cutting operation, wherein the only manual step is bending the tightened clamp prior to triggering the cutter arm. A gripper element is non-rotational and has teeth. It locates the material being gripped in a repeatable manner in spite of oil or other lubricants on the clamp. After the cutting operation an automatic release assembly releases the clamp. A manual lever(s) can also release a tail of a clamp.
