ABSTRACT:
A plurality of pins (24) held at opposite ends by carrier strip (48 and 50) is positioned within a pin applicator (54) where the pins are moved into nests (66) of a stationary jaw (56). As the pins (24) are moved by a movable jaw (58) into the nests (66), the carrier strip (48) engages a stripper bar (70) to separate the strip from the pins. A flared surface (88) of the movable jaw (58) engages portions of the pins (24) to position the pins axially with respect to planar aligned surfaces (68) of the stationary jaw (56). The movable jaw (58) then clamps the pins (24) within the nests (66).
The strip (50) is separated from the pins (24) and the stationary and movable jaws (56 and 58) are moved to insert portions of the clamped pins into apertures (26) of a board (22).
