Abstract:
1. An electric-wire processing machine comprising: a clamping device that releasably clamps an electric wire that has been supplied in a predetermined electric-wire supplying direction; and an electric-wire nozzle unit which is placed on the downstream side of the clamping device in the electric-wire supplying direction and through which an electric wire is inserted, wherein a nozzle opening which is formed in the electric-wire nozzle unit and through which the electric wire is inserted is adjustably opened and closed, with a device that adjusts the size of the nozzle opening in response to the size of the outer diameter of the electric wire being installed therein, wherein the clamping device and the electric-wire nozzle unit are placed on a shifting base that is shift-controlled at least two-dimensionally, and an interlocking device, which allows the nozzle opening to be size-adjusted through opening-adjustment shifts of the shifting base in accordance with the diameter of the electric wire, is installed.
