ABSTRACT:
Terminal pins (18) in a terminal pin strip (16) are integrally interconnected by webs (22) located intermediate free insertion ends (18i) and free connector ends (18c) of the pins so that when the webs are severed to separate the terminal pins, the severing operation does not disrupt the integrity of smooth finished surfaces on the connector ends of the pins. Each terminal pin (18) also is formed with an intermediate push shoulder (18ps) for applying pressure on the pin to insert the pin into an aperture (20a) in a support structure, such as a printed wiring board (20), without damaging the connector end (18c) of the pin. Assembly of the terminal pins (18) into the printed wiring board (20), utilizing terminal pin strips (16) on respective supply reels (24), is accomplished with apparatus comprising a pair of pin transporter mechanisms (26), a pair of web-severing punch-and-die mechanisms (28), and a pin insertion mechanism 30.
