Abstract
A wire harness bundle twister and comber employs a comber plate having a plurality of apertures receiving a plurality of wire bundles in sliding engagement with handles extending from the comber plate for rotation of the plate to twist the wire bundles into a consolidated wire harness. To allow removal of the wire bundles from the bundle twister and comber without withdrawing the wire bundles to an end the comber plate incorporates an upper outer plate element and a lower outer plate element concentric with and separable from a first inner or center element to separate the apertures into segments for removal of the wire bundles.
