ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for fully automatic fabrication of wiring harnesses is disclosed which is particularly suitable for twisted pairs of telephone wires. Such harnesses are fabricated using slotted-beam connector blocks for all terminations of the harness. Mass-termination to the slotted-beam connectors is accomplished with a pair-indexing head, a comb, and a presser head selectively terminating individual pairs of a bundle of pairs.
An automatic connector block insertion station, harness lashing station, and a pair-cutting station, distributed along a moving connector block holding belt, permit continuous automatic harness production.
