An improved substrate guide member and an improved method of manufacturing the same wherein slits are cut at the base of raised relief ribs prior to drawing such ribs. The result is a flatter and less expensive substrate guide member without the need for supplemental straightening processes.

Substrate guide member with improved flatness and method of making the same

A low-wire sensor for sensing when the amount of wire W remaining on a spool 102 falls below a predetermined low level, comprising a lever 11 biased by a spring 15 so as to press against the wire W on the spool exceeds the low level and to disengage from the wire when the wire reaches said low level for movement to a wire-low indicating position in which it suitably actuates a sensor switch.
