To provide a cable feeder that can suppress a defect in a cable delivered out and can suppress a drop in the yield of the cable.
The cable feeder 1 comprises belt feed units 4 for delivering out a cable 5 along a path line P. The belt feed units 4 each comprise a drive pulley 10, first follower pulleys 11, a second follower pulley 12 and an endless belt 13. The first follower pulleys 11 have a smaller diameter than the drive pulley 10. The first follower pulleys 11 are in juxtaposition with the drive pulley 10. The second follower pulley 12 holds the first follower pulleys 11 between itself and the drive pulley 10 along the path line P. The center of rotation of the second follower pulley 12 is more separated from the path line P than the center of rotation of the drive pulley 10. The endless belt 13 is entrained about the pulleys 10 to 12. A region 20 located between the first follower pulleys 11 and the drive pulley 10 is along the path line P.
