ABSTRACT:
A tooling assembly (1) comprises an upper tooling assembly (4) a lower tooling assembly (6) and a base plate (8). The upper tooling assembly (4) is connected to a press ram and the base plate (8) is connected to the press frame. The lower tooling assembly (6) comprises a pivotable wire shearing comb (34) and a stationary wire shearing comb (36). In the use of the tooling, the pivotable wire comb (34) is moved to an open position and a connector (2) having slotted plate contacts (162) projecting from opposite sides of the connector (2) is laid on the fixed comb (36) and the pivotable comb (34) is then pivoted to a closed position. Wires (W) to be terminated, are inserted through slots (82) in the pivotable comb (34) and through slots (100) in the stationary comb (36). The lower tooling assembly (6) is then laid on the base plate (8) with one of the combs ( 34 or 36) uppermost. The press ram (14) is then actuated to cause wire stuffer and wire shear fingers (22) to be inserted through the slots of the comb which is uppermost, to shear the wires (W) against shear edges (83) in the slots and to drive severed end portions of the wires (W) into the contacts (162) on one side of the connector (2).
