Abstract:
A device for inserting insulative materials into armature slots comprising:means for feeding said insulative materials in a feeding direction; means for cutting said insulative materials to form a cut insulative material; means for bending said cut insulative materials to form a cut and bent insulative material; means for inserting said cut and bent insulative material into a slot of said armature; means for indexing said armature; means for feeding said insulative material beyond said means for cutting; means for operating in turn said means for cutting, bending, inserting and indexing; at least one sensor means; and, a programmable logic circuit; wherein said sensor means communicates a signal to said programmable logic circuit; said signal being proportional to the positional relationship of said insulative material and said cutting means; said programmable logic circuit communicating with said operating means to independently control said means for feeding, cutting, bending, inserting and indexing means based on said signal.
