  • Equipment for equipping plug housings with fitted-out cable ends of a cable
    Patent number: 7243415
    Abstract: An equipping installation introduces fitted-out cable ends into plug housings and is arranged downstream from a fitting-out installation. A contact for the first plug housing is arranged at the leading cable end and a contact for the second plug housing is arranged at the trailing cable end. A feeder unit takes over the cable loop fitted-out to a finished state from a second transfer unit and transfers the leading cable end to a positioning unit and the trailing cable end either to a rotatable store or, after the positioning unit is again free of cable, to the positioning unit in accordance with a cable plan. An equipping unit takes over the cable ends in succession at the positioning unit and introduces the cable ends into the corresponding plug housings.
