Abstract:
A method of electrically connecting enameled wire ends with contact surfaces, with an enameled wire end being stripped and pressed against a contact surface and the wire being charged with at least one of an electromagnetic energy and an acoustical energy, wherein the enamel layer of the wire end is destroyed with a first energy in a first process step, and the wire is permanently connected to the contact surface with a second energy in a second process step, so that the enamel layer of the wire end is only partially destroyed in the first process step through the pressing of a region of the wire end against the contact surface with a first pressing force, and the charging of the region with at least one of a first electromagnetic energy and a first acoustical energy, and the same region of the wire end is pressed against the contact surface with a second, lower pressing force in a subsequent second process step, and is charged with the second energy and connected to this contact surface so as to conduct electricity.
