Machine for inserting intermediate portions of wires into a wire-receiving portions of terminals in a two-row multi-contact electrical connector comprises a frame having a connector supporting member extending cantilever fashion from the frame. Wire insertion stations are located on each side of the connector supporting means and have insertion rams for moving the wires laterally of their axes and into the wire-receiving portions of the terminals. The cantilever arrangement of the connector supporting means provides clearance for the wires after they have been inserted into the terminals so that the connector supporting means can be indexed towards the frame so as to position all of the terminals in alignment with inserting rams. A wire stop means is provided at the wire insertion stations which serves to position the wires being inserted in alignment with the inserting rams and to permit movement of the inserted wires past the insertion station during indexing. |
