A wire feeding and bonding tool, including: - a support to hold a component to which a wire is to be attached, wherein the component has at least first and second spaced-apart wire attach structures to which a wire can be attached, and wherein a first wire axis extends between the first and second wire attach structures (74, 76); - a wire feed system including: a capillary having an end portion with a feed opening, wherein a wire to be attached to the wire attach structures can be fed through the capillary and extend from the feed opening; a stage configured to move the capillary with respect to the support about one or more axes to position the capillary and a wire extending from the feed opening; - an attachment tool (40, 41) positioned with respect to the support to attach the wire to the attach structures; - a cutting tool positioned with respect to the support to cut the wire; and - a control system coupled to the stage, the attachment tool (40, 41) and the cutting tool, wherein the control system is configured to: actuate the stage to position the capillary with portions of the wire extending from the feed opening presented at the first and second wire attach structures; actuate the stage to move the capillary along a wire feed path and feed the wire from the first wire attach structure to the second wire attach structure with the wire emerging from the feed opening sufficiently coaxial with the first wire axis to reduce damage to the wire; actuate the attachment tool to attach the wire to the first and second attach structures; and actuate the cutting tool to cut the wire. - a support to hold a component to which a wire is to be attached, wherein the component has at least first and second spaced-apart wire attach structures to which a wire can be attached, and wherein a first wire axis extends between the first and second wire attach structures (74, 76); - a wire feed system including: a capillary having an end portion with a feed opening, wherein a wire to be attached to the wire attach structures can be fed through the capillary and extend from the feed opening; a stage configured to move the capillary with respect to the support about one or more axes to position the capillary and a wire extending from the feed opening; a capillary having an end portion with a feed opening, wherein a wire to be attached to the wire attach structures can be fed through the capillary and extend from the feed opening; a stage configured to move the capillary with respect to the support about one or more axes to position the capillary and a wire extending from the feed opening; - an attachment tool (40, 41) positioned with respect to the support to attach the wire to the attach structures; - a cutting tool positioned with respect to the support to cut the wire; and - a control system coupled to the stage, the attachment tool (40, 41) and the cutting tool, wherein the control system is configured to: actuate the stage to position the capillary with portions of the wire extending from the feed opening presented at the first and second wire attach structures; actuate the stage to move the capillary along a wire feed path and feed the wire from the first wire attach structure to the second wire attach structure with the wire emerging from the feed opening sufficiently coaxial with the first wire axis to reduce damage to the wire; actuate the attachment tool to attach the wire to the first and second attach structures; and actuate the cutting tool to cut the wire. actuate the stage to position the capillary with portions of the wire extending from the feed opening presented at the first and second wire attach structures; actuate the stage to move the capillary along a wire feed path and feed the wire from the first wire attach structure to the second wire attach structure with the wire emerging from the feed opening sufficiently coaxial with the first wire axis to reduce damage to the wire; actuate the attachment tool to attach the wire to the first and second attach structures; and actuate the cutting tool to cut the wire.
