Abstract: The present invention relates to a clamping device for clamping at least part of a zipper. The clamping device includes a base, a head including an upper jaw movably connected to a lower jaw, an arm at one end pivotably connected to the base and at another opposite end pivotably connected to the head; and at least one driving means suitable for pivoting the head with respect to the arm. The upper jaw includes a recession for accommodating at least part of a slider of the zipper. The head is movable from an open position, wherein the upper jaw and the lower jaw are spaced apart, to a closed position, wherein a cavity is formed by the recession and the lower jaw; and the slider is securable within the cavity.
