Automated attachment of wire to SMT pads

Hi All,

Has anyone seen or used equipment that is capable of automating the process of attaching hookup wire directly to a large SMT pad?

Soldering, ultrasonic?

I'm looking to see if there is a machine that is capable of automatically taking a teflon coated 20AWG wire and cut-strip and solder to a PCB.

Any feedback is appreciated. thanks!
