Abstract
An apparatus terminates and winds coils of a core of a dynamo electric machine. The coils are formed from at least an electric wire and the core has a longitudinal axis. The apparatus includes a wire dispenser which translates and rotates with respect to a core to wind the coils. At least a stretch of wire extends from the coil; and the stretch of wire includes a portion for a termination connection to a termination structure of the core, such as a tang terminal. The core has a groove at an end to receive at least a wire in the path of the wire to terminate the coils. The apparatus comprises a wire deflector positioned adjacent the end of the core, where the groove is located, in order to intercept and align the wire with the groove. The apparatus avoids waste cut wire.
