Abstract
An apparatus for bending a hypodermic needle includes a bending die, a needle gripper configured to grasp the hypodermic needle, a servo-actuated slide operatively coupled to the needle gripper, and a servo- or pneumatically-actuated bending pin. The servo-actuated slide is configured to translate the needle gripper along a linear path adjacent to the bending die for positioning the hypodermic needle at a predetermined bending position with respect to the bending die. The bending pin is rotatable about a bending axis passing through the linear path. The bending pin is configured to press a portion of the hypodermic needle against the bending die as the bending pin rotates to form a bend in the hypodermic needle.
