ABSTRACT:
In the method, lengths of wire are drawn from wire supplies and cut, each end of each cut wire being stripped of insulation and terminated, and the cut wire then being laid along a predetermined path defined by guide pins on a loom board. The wire lengths are then bound together and removed from the board. The wire is handled by a mechanical gripper which moves and is actuated under preprogrammed electronic control.
The apparatus comprises a loom board or the means by which such a loom board can be made, an automatic manipulator having a controlled gripper to draw wire from a preselected supply, a cutter to cut the wire, a wire stripper and insulative sleeve applicator and a terminal supply and crimper, both accessible to the gripper which can then lay the terminated wire lengths along predetermined paths on the loom board, and a tape binder which binds the laid wires together to form the required wiring loom.
