Abstract

An insertion arrangement () is provided to make it easier for an operator to insert several needles () clamped in a multiple clamping chuck (), even in the case of certain positional deviations, simultaneously in the associate bores () of a needle board (). The insertion arrangement () comprises a guide section () with many parallel grooves () that are arranged at the distance of the bores (), and that, respectively, can accommodate the tip () of a needle () and can guide said tip to the associate bore (). In so doing, the grooves () help align the individual needles () with respect to the bores () in that the grooves correct potential positional deviations by slightly bending the needles (). The insertion arrangement () is mounted to an automatic loading machine () and can be adjusted and locked relative to a needle board () accommodated in the automatic loading machine.
