Abstract
A mechanism for fabricating a metalarc lamp. The metalarc lamp has a glass stem, mount frames, and a banding strap for circumferentially encompassing and binding the mount frames to the glass stem. The mechanism defines a horizontal plane for the mount frames. The banding strap is mechanically clamped about the glass stem at opposite pole centers. Then, interlocking portions of the banding strap are crimped to affix the mount frames with respect to the glass stem.
