A wire guiding device 20 can be used in a machine for measuring and cutting a wire, and is adapted to curve the wire being fed substantially in U-shape during the measurement of the wire. The wire guiding device 20 includes a fixed guide block 21 and a movable guide block 22 rotatable with respect to the fixed guide block 21. The movable guide block 22 is rotated by a cylinder 51 so as to be displaceable between an engaging position where it is engaged with the fixed guide block 21 and a retracted position which is reached by its upward rotation from the engaging position. Since the movable guide block 22 is rotatable upward, i.e. in a direction under an angle, in particular normal to a feed direction of the wire, the wire can be fed at a high speed, realizing a faster measuring operation. This results in the rationalization of the manufacturing of wiring harnesses.
