Abstract
An apparatus for delivering a discrete cord having a fluid flow, a deployed cord supply, a transfer member having a first surface having one or more apertures, and a cutting apparatus having a cutting implement enabled to sever the deployed cord supply to form a discrete cord. The transfer houses a carrier that is aligned with the aperture and enabled to cross the aperture path. The fluid flow directs the deployed cord supply towards the transfer member first surface. The transfer member first surface abuts the cutting apparatus.
