ABSTRACT:
An IDC termination machine comprises opposed spring loaded gripper pads for clamping and a wire to be terminated in alignment with a corresponding IDC section of a connector. One of the gripper pads is connected to an arm having a camming protrusion that cooperates with a stuffer member. During pulling of the wire between the gripper pads, the gripper pads are biased apart such that the wire can be brought without resistance as close as possible to the connector. Termination is then actuated, and advance movement of the stuffer cams the protrusion into a recess of the camming plate. The gripper pad thus clamps the wire against opposing gripper pad just prior to cutting and termination.
