ABSTRACT:
A tool comprising tongs with two pivoted arms and a release system. The two arms each bear, at their respective ends, pressure members. A drive motor causes the arms to pivot with respect to one another, either to close them and thus permit the pressure members to grip the part to be treated, or to open them and permit the release of the part with respect to the tongs after treatment. This tool in addition includes a release system which insures that the two pressure members are well separated from the part after actuation of the opening of the arms. The release system includes a coupling device adapted to actively control the opening and closing of the arms using a fraction of the power of the drive motor. Preferably, this coupling device is an electrically controlled clutch.
