ABSTRACT In a machine for use in shaping the leads of electronic components having a component transporter for transporting components from a loading station to a lead forming station the improvement wherein the component transporter comprises a pair of discs each having a resiliently flexible peripheral edge portion in which a plurality of lead receiving notches are formed. A plurality of edge separation slots extend inwardly from the peripheral edge of each disc, one on either side of each receiving notch thereby subdividing the peripheral edge portion into a plurality of independently flexible segments. Magnets are provided to deflect successive segments laterally away from one another during passage through the loading station to widen the gap between the segments to receive the body of a component therebetween and thereafter permit the successive segments to move toward one another to clamp in the body of a component therebetween with its leads projecting through the notches. A loading wheel is also provided. The loading wheel has a peripheral edge formed with a plurality of component recesses. The loading wheel is mounted to rotate with its peripheral edge overlapping a length of the peripheral edge portion of the discs during passage through the loading station. A pair of guide rails are arranged one on either side of a slipway which intersects the path of travel of the component recesses of the loading wheel assembly as they pass through the loading station.
