Telephone Connector Contact Assembly Machine
Automatically feeds and assembles 50 contacts into an insulator body, feeds and assembles a “T’ bar, tests contact assembly. Accepted parts are then contained by ultrasonic welding “T’ bar to insulator, rejected parts are routed to separate station for rework. Parts are automatically fed through loosely toleranced track systems to precision assembly stations.
