Abstract
The present invention is a method and apparatus for terminating wires in terminals while monitoring the quality of the termination. Quantitative data is collected during the terminating operation, analyzed to determine whether or not the quality of the termination is within acceptable limits, and appropriate machine mechanisms are adjusted, when required, to assure continued high quality output. This is done in a completely automated environment.
