ABSTRACT:
To support robotic assembly of wire harnesses having wires with loop or lug terminals, a breakout dock includes a support for robotic breakout of the wire from the bundle and a clamp for receiving that wire from a wire routing tool on the robot. The clamp generally includes opposed spring leaves that are wedged apart by the lowering of the wire routing tool into the mouth of the clamp. Position indicators allow the robot to determine the precise orientation and location of the dock, including the location of the supports and clamps mounted on the dock.
