ABSTRACT:
A plurality of closely-spaced components on a substrate have their leads bent simultaneously to secure the components to the substrate. Two air cylinders are secured at opposite ends of a stationary plate. One cylinder displaces a first plate in opposite linear directions. The other cylinder displaces a second plate in the same directions as the first plate but opposite in sense. An array of lead bending jaws are secured to each movable plate in mating pairs for bending the leads of a corresponding component, one jaw of the pair is secured to and moved by one plate and the other jaw of the pair is secured to and moved by the other plate.
