Abstract: An apparatus and method for terminating crosswires on a tension focus mask. The apparatus includes a set of base segment side rails each having a length and two respective ends. A pair of square tubes attached perpendicular to the respective ends of said base segment side rails to substantially form a rectangle. Also included are a pair of massive side rails having a length and two respective ends mounted above said base segments perpendicularly to said square tubes on each of the side rapid. Beam shield is offered to the massive side rail and insulating members are sandwiched between the side rail and a bus bar. Finally, a tension mask is attached and crosswires are laid and affixed to the bus bar.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for applying crosswires to a tension mask. The method includes winding crosswires around various drum assemblies and then using transfer devices to remove sections of crosswires and transfer them to tension mask frame assemblies.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for terminating crosswires on a tension focus mask. The apparatus includes a busbar support rail aligned with a busbar attached by a set of spacers and busbar support clips, a termination assembly and a set of termination spring clips. The method includes aligning the busbar support rail with the busbar, attaching busbar support clips to the busbar, affixing spacers to a side of the busbar and then placing a termination strip along the side of the spacer. After all the elements have been aligned, crosswires are drawn across the top of the busbar and attached to the termination strip. An electrical adhesive is applied over the busbar top and allowed to cure. After the electrical adhesive cures, the crosswires between the busbar and the termination strip are cut so as to provide electrical isolation.
