An apparatus (100) for installing at least one electrical contact (152) into a connector housing (150) comprises a base (110) configured to fixedly support the connector housing (150), an alignment guide (122), extending from the base (110) and having a central axis (164), and a carrier (124), translatably and pivotally coupled with the alignment guide (122). With the connector housing (150) fixedly supported by the base (110), the alignment guide (122) is configured to be parallel to an insertion axis (160) of a socket (154) of the connector housing (150), and the carrier (124) is movable parallel to the insertion axis (160). The apparatus (100) additionally comprises a tool holder (132), coupled to the carrier (124). The tool holder (132) has a working axis (162), only one degree of freedom relative to the carrier (124), and only three degrees of freedom relative to the base (110). |
