Abstract
Apparatus to automatically attach a terminal to electrical wire and thereafter to install insulating pods on the terminal. The apparatus includes a press which attaches the terminal to form a terminated wire and a transfer block which moves the terminated wire to an insulation pod installation station. The pods are delivered to the pod installation station in an interconnected fashion so as to form a strip of pods. The first pod on the strip is separated from the rest of the strip and placed on the terminated wire.
