ABSTRACT:
In-line lead making machine (30) has a wire transferring mechanism (18) for shifting the leading end of the wire (11), which extends from a barrel or other endless source (12), from the vicinity of the cutting and stripping blades (21) to a terminating machine (28). The wire (11) is then shifted back to the vicinity of the cutting and stripping blades (21) and fed from the source (12). The wire is then cut to produce the electrical lead (2). During shifting of the wire (11) from the terminating machine (28) to the vicinity of the cutting and stripping blades (21), the transfer mechanism (18) is pivoted upwardly and the wire feeding operation is started during shifting of the transfer mechanism. The wire (11) is thus fed over and above the severing and insulation cutting blades (21) rather than between these blades and the feeding step is started earlier in the cycle than would otherwise be possible.
