Abstract:
A wire forming apparatus which feeds out a wire to a formation space at a distal end of a wire guide (333) and works the wire into a desired shape by using radially arranged tools (T1-T4) includes a wire feeder (30) which supports the wire guide (333) and feeds out the wire to the wire guide (333), tool rotating means (230), from which the tool (T1-T4) is detachable, for changing a position of the tool (T1-T4) relative to the wire guide (333) by rotation, tool driving means (240), rotatably supported by the tool rotating means (230), for applying a driving force to the tool (T1-T4) attached to the tool rotating means (230), a table (210, 220) which supports the tool rotating means (230) and the tool driving means (240) and is configured to move in a two-dimensional direction, and control means (701) for controlling operations of the wire feeder (30), the tool rotating means (230), the tool driving means (240), and the table (210, 220) to work the wire into a desired shape.
