Applicator with mechanical feed system
With this applicator (Figure 6), the terminals are fed by the action of the feed cam and a series of rods and
levers that move the feed pawl.

Two feed cams (Figure 7) can be used with the mechanical feed applicator.
The
pre-feed
cam advances the lead terminal over the anvil on the upward stroke of the ram assembly
so that a terminal is over the anvil when the machine is at rest. The pre-feed set up is typically used for
side-feed bench applications.
The
post-feed
cam advances the lead terminal over the anvil on the downward stroke of the ram
assembly. The post-feed set up is typically used for leadmaker and end-feed bench applications.
