A mechanism for cutting and clinching spaced leads of variously sized electrical components which leads have been inserted through preselected openings in a printed circuit board either by a manual insertion or automatic insertion. The cut-clinch mechanism has a housing adapted to be moved toward and away from the underside of the board, the housing carrying a fixed cutting and clinching head and a movable cutting and clinching head positioned by a drive mechanism that is program controlled for each given component inserted into the board to properly space the movable cut-clinch head from the fixed head so that the leads of the variously sized given components can be automatically cut and clinched.
