ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE Apparatus is provided for inserting terminals into a workpiece. The apparatus includes feeding means for sequentially advancing a supply strip of integrally connected preformed terminals toward a first station of the apparatus. Grasping means are provided for grasping the leading one of the terminals at the first station and for maintaining a grasp on that one of such terminals until such terminal is inserted in the workpiece. The grasp- ing means include first and second grasping plates normally biased apart to define a reception space for the leading one of said terminals, shearing means for severing the leading one of the terminals from the remainder of the supply strip, and actuating means for urging the grasping plates toward one another to grasp the leading one of the terminals therebetween for a pre- selected period of time. The shearing means include a shearing edge passed by one of the grasping plates as they are urged toward one another by the actuating means such that the leading one of the terminals is sheared from the supply strip as that one of such grasping plates passes the shearing edge. Finally driving means are provided which are operable to drive the grasping means toward the workpiece for insertion of the terminal therein. This provides a reliable automated technique which can simply, easily and rapidly establish terminals on substrates in an economic fashion.
