ABSTRACT:
The lead of an electrical component that extends from the bottom of a printed circuit board that is being assembled is inserted through an aperture in a fixed, rigid cutting finger. A cutting sleeve fits over the finger and is rotatable coaxially thereabout. A cutting blade on the rotatable sleeve wipes past the aperture and cuts the lead. As the blade cuts the lead it also clinches, or bends, the lead toward the bottom of the circuit board. Two such mechanisms operate simultaneously to cut and clinch both leads of an electrical component such as a capacitor or resistor.
