ABSTRACT:
The apparatus is for loading electrical terminals (T) on leads (L) into cavities (TC) in an electrical connector block (B). The apparatus comprises a lead clamp (240) which is actuable to clamp a lead (L). The lead clamp (240) is mounted on a first slide (369) which is movable along a vertical axis (Z--Z) relative to a second slide (408), which is in turn movable along a first horizontal axis (Y--Y) relative to a carriage (402) which is slidable along a second horizontal axis (X--X) at right angles to the first horizontal axis (Y--Y). Drive motors (414, 410 and 416) are actuable according to a harness making program, to cause the lead clamp (240) to insert a terminal (T) on a lead (L) gripped by the lead clamp (240), into any terminal receiving cavity (TC) which has been selected in accordance with a program.
