    Abstract: A component lead wire cutting equipment includes upper and lower levers for gripping a pair of lead wires of an electric component extending in the same direction. A driving device moves the levers. A pair of cutter blades are mounted on the levers to spread the pitch of the lead wires to a given size, and to cut off the lead wires. A pair of regulating convex portions regulate the movement of the lead wires along their spreading direction in the position between the cutter blades and the component body. During the cutting operation of the lead wires the component is prevented from being broken or from being inclined in its body.
