ABSTRACT:
Wire feeding means which can be used with conventional wire crimping presses are disclosed. A movable funnel is used to precisely position the wires in a crimping station. Movement of the funnel in synchronization with the terminal feed mechanism extracts the wire from the crimping station and relative movement of the wire and the funnel releases the wire from the funnel. A wire gripping channel into which a wire is positioned grips the wire and moves it through the funnel into the crimping station. A sensor which detects the presence of the wire in the channel is located between a barrel and the crimping station. These elements combine to move the uncrimped wire longitudinally into the crimping station and then move the crimped wire laterally out of the crimping station.
