The invention relates to a method of arranging flexible, insulated conductors of a bundle of unaligned electrical conductors into an aligned mutual position before soldering the stripped ends of the conductors (27) to conduction paths of a contact member, for example of a printed circuit board. The unaligned conductors (25) are drawn from an unaligned position between the flush teeth (13, 14) of two combs (9, 11) until the transitions of the insulated parts of the conductors (26) to the stripped parts (27) have just passed the first comb (11), whereupon the conductors are clamped in narrow spaces (15, 16) between the teeth (13, 14). The two combs (9, 11) are arranged on a base plate (3). The teeth are thin at the top (17, 19) and become broader at the base (21, 23).

A method of arranging flexible, insulated conductors of a bundle of unaligned conductors having stripped ends into an aligned condition prior to soldering said stripped ends to associated connectors, said method including drawing said conductors through the spaces between parallel teeth of each of two non-metallic combs, said combs being disposed one behind the other as a front comb and a rear comb with a space between them, said teeth of said rear comb being broader at their bases than at their tips so as to narrow the spaces between them, said conductors being so drawn until the junction between the stripped end of each and its insulation portion is located just within the space between said combs in said aligned condition with said stripped ends lying between associated teeth of said front comb and clamping said conductors in such position by pressing their insulation portions down into the narrow spaces between the broadened portions of the teeth of said rear comb. A combination of a plurality of flexible insulated conductors and a device for arranging them in aligned condition, said conductors having stripped ends, said device comprising two non-metallic combs each with parallel teeth, said combs being disposed one comb behind the other as a front comb and a rear comb with a space between said two combs, and a base plate interconnecting said combs, said teeth of said rear comb being broader at their bases than at their tips whereby the spaces between them are narrower at their bases than at their tips, each said conductor being disposed with the junction between its stripped end and its insulation portion located in the space between said combs with its stripped end located between two of the teeth of said front comb and its insulation portion pressed into one of the narrower spaces between two of the teeth of said rear comb.
