Abstract: A terminated cable portion inspection device (8) for a stripped terminal crimping machine, which is located on a bidirectional path (P) between a stripping portion and a terminal crimping portion and includes: an image pickup camera (11) having a high shutter speed; an illuminating device (12) including a pair of illuminating portions (20) on opposite sides of a photographing path (19) of the image pickup camera (11) for directing illumination in substantially the same direction as a photographing direction toward a cable end passing therethrough along the bidirectional path (P) and elongated in substantially the same direction as a longitudinal direction of the cable, and optical fibers (22) for guiding light to light projecting portions (23) of the illuminating portions (20); and a detector (13) including first and second sensors (31, 32) for detecting the cable end.
