A wire singulating device includes a carrier member and a retention feature. The carrier member has a front edge and an opposite rear edge. The front edge defines an opening to a slot that extends at least partially towards the rear edge. The carrier member is configured to move relative to a wire bundle that includes plural wires such that the front edge engages the wire bundle. The slot is configured to receive one wire of the wire bundle therein. The retention feature is coupled to the carrier member and juxtaposed relative to the slot to retain the wire within the slot as the carrier member moves away from the wire bundle to separate the wire from the wire bundle.
