HI, I want to be able to move each pincer individually for each side and one controller to move both side. could anyone explain me how to do it efficiently ? I use 3ds max.

Just parent both the controllers under the master controller. Are you using IK handles for moving them or FK?

For the main dummy you can create a Reaction so that when you move it linearly up and down (as seen in image) the two pincers rotate appropriately to open and close.
