WIRE FEEDING APPARATUS

摘要

Wires are fed from a hopper into a helical groove of a roller. The roller is rotated to feed each wire in turn both laterally and axially to position its end between crimping dies by means of which an electrical terminal is crimped to the wire end. The positioning of the wire between the dies is facilitated by a rotary guide turret housing a tapered groove for guiding the wires towards the dies.
