Automated temporary fastener actuation apparatus and system

A temporary fastener actuation system comprising:

• a temporary fastener actuation tool comprising:
• a protrusion comprising a groove that matches a shape of an indentation of a temporary fastener;
• a plurality of spring clips, each spring clip comprising an end that is aligned with an end of the protrusion, the plurality of spring clips configured to hold the indentation of the temporary fastener secure against the protrusion;
• a bearing shaft;
• a first bearing coupled to the bearing shaft and configured to contact a cylindrical body of the temporary fastener and rotate the cylindrical body of the temporary fastener in a first direction;
• a second bearing coupled to the bearing shaft and configured to contact a stem of the temporary fastener and rotate the stem of the temporary fastener in a second direction;
• and
• a motor shaft coupled to the bearing shaft;
• a rotary tool configured to:
• couple to the motor shaft of the temporary fastener actuation tool;
• rotate the motor shaft and the first bearing in the first direction while the second bearing is disengaged from the stem, thereby causing the cylindrical body of the temporary fastener to rotate;
• and
• rotate the motor shaft and the second bearing in the second direction while the first bearing is disengaged from the cylindrical body, thereby causing a plurality of tines of the temporary fastener to contract;
• and
• a collar configured to contact a cylindrical body of the temporary fastener and hold the cylindrical body of the temporary fastener stationary when the stem is rotated in the second direction.
