ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for securing spherical bodies to a supporting member by staking. The spheres are fed one by one into a bore of a setting apparatus where they are picked up by the front end of a staking punch which reciprocates in the bore. The punch advances the sphere to the supporting member and imbeds the sphere in the surface of the supporting member while at the same time forming integral tangs from the supporting member which partially encircle the sphere and hold it in place. The punch then withdraws to pick up a fresh sphere and a new supporting member is moved into place to receive the fresh sphere.
