Abstract
Wires (30-1, 30-2, 30-3 and 30-4), which may be of different gauges, are selectively wound on bobbins (32) either singly or in parallel with one another. More specifically, wire guides (364) for first wires (30-1) are selectively transferable between a wire wrapping plate (222) for a bobbin winding operation, and inoperative positions on a storage block (71). Similarly, wire guides (428) for the additional wires (30-2, 30-3 and 30-4) are selectively transferable between the wire wrapping plate (222) for a bobbin winding operation, and inoperative positions in a magazine storage assembly (66). The wrapping radius of the wrapping plate (222) also is adjustable to accommodate bobbins (32) having different terminal spacings.
