Abstract: A wire cutter apparatus includes a first rotatable wire guiding tube for receiving the leading end of a wire. The first tube has a wire entrance and a wire exit and is rotatable around the wire entrance whereby the wire exit is movable between a first wire exit position coinciding with a longitudinal feeding axis and a second wire exit position spaced away from the longitudinal feeding axis. The apparatus includes a similar, second rotatable wire guiding tube. A first crimping press receives the leading end of the wire when the wire exit is in the second wire exit position. The first crimping press and the second crimping press are both at least partially located between the longitudinal feeding axis and a first side wall.
