ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to an automatic apparatus and method for coupling a workpiece to a specified position along a continuous length of line and then cutting the line to a predetermined length. A length of the line is clamped adjacent a leading section thereof and tensioned over the workpiece to which it is to be fastened. The tension is then regulated for providing slack in the line. Loop sections are then folded into the line and stuffed through one or more one way apertures in the workpiece. Additional tension is provided for unfolding the line within the apertures, thereby coupling the line to the workpiece. The length of line is then moved to another work area for being cut to the predetermined length. An apparatus in accordance with this method is also provided.
