ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a method and apparatus for automatically terminating the end of a flat flexible cable in a reciprocably actuable low insertion force connector having a dielectric housing with a cable receiving cavity and a terminal member disposed in the cavity. The connector also includes a reciprocating cover having a cable receiving aperture and mounting for reciprocable movement between an open position for receiving the cable, and a closed position for terminating the cable within the connector. The apparatus includes an insertion head and an arrangement for automatically positioning the insertion head with respect to the cable receiving aperture of the connector cover. The insertion head further includes a reciprocable cable feeder which inserts the cable end through the cover aperture, and a reciprocable actuator which moves the cover upon insertion of the cable and the connector.
