ABSTRACT:
A method for bending and inserting a pin in one sequential operation includes the steps of feeding an end of a pre-notched pin wire, shearing a connector terminal from the end of the wire, clamping one part of the terminal between jaws, displacing the jaws toward a hole in a printed circuit board, displacing a bending sheet at a rate faster than the rate at which the jaws are displaced whereby the bending shoe bends the connector terminal pin while the jaws are moving, and inserting the bent terminal in the hole in the printed circuit board. The apparatus for carrying out the method includes a bending shoe ram and an insertion ram driven at different speeds and with different stroke lengths by an eccentric pin mounted on the end of a drive shaft.
