Zusammenfassung:	A device for feeding a wire electrode includes a housing having an input port, an output port, and a cavity defined by the housing. The device also includes a first group of bearings and a second group of bearings disposed within the housing. Each of the bearings have a surface configured to engage and drive the wire electrode. Additionally, each of the bearings have teeth adjacent to the perimeter of the bearings. The teeth of the bearings forming the first group are in meshing engagement with each other, while the teeth of the bearings forming the second group are in meshing engagement with each other. The device also includes a drive sprocket within the housing and having teeth that mesh with the teeth of one of the bearings of the first group and the teeth of one of the bearings of the second group.
