ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a wire selection and feed apparatus for use in an automated machine for making electrical cables. The apparatus includes a rotary turret having a plurality of wire holders angularly spaced about its periphery. The desired wire is selected by rotating the turret until the appropriate wire holder is in the feed, or select, position. The wire holder is then advanced thereby presenting the end of the selected wire to a work station for processing. At this point the wire may be fed a desired amount into the work station by bringing a wire feed until into feeding engagement with the wire.
