A method of manufacturing a terminal-equipped electric wire, includes: connecting a terminal fitting to one end of an electric wire in which a conductor is covered with a jacket; clamping a range of a predetermined length in a length direction at an intermediate portion of the electric wire with a pair of plate bodies; and performing an ultrasonic joining processing by applying an ultrasonic vibration to the conductor exposed at the other end of the electric wire.

A terminal connecting method includes setting a conductor having a plurality of strands on an upper surface of a bottom portion of an electric wire crimping part of a terminal, caulking the conductor in a manner to cover the conductor, thereby crimping the conductor by a caulking portion extended from the bottom portion, and welding the plurality of strands together in a strands exposed portion of the conductor exposed from tip end edges of the caulking portion by friction between the plurality of strands and a friction tool, after caulking and crimping.

A thermocompression apparatus includes a stage and a heater chip. The stage includes an installation surface on which a component having a scheduled portion of thermocompression is placed. The heater chip is disposed to be freely movable to and from the scheduled portion of thermocompression of the component opposite to the installation surface of the stage and is configured to heat and press the scheduled portion of thermocompression. The installation surface includes a maximum convex and a pair of slope surfaces. The maximum convex is configured to contact with a bottom surface of the component. The pair of slope surfaces has heights decreasing respectively from the maximum convex toward both sides of the installation surface in a width direction of the component.

A robotic wire termination system for efficiently and accurately connecting a plurality of wires to an electrical connector having a plurality of connector pins with corresponding wire receptacles. The system generally includes a housing, a removable alignment plate, a robotic positioner, a heating device, a touch responsive display, and a control unit. The alignment plate removably holds a selected electrical connector in a specific position and orientation with the connector pins exposed in the housing and the wire receptacles exposed outside. The display provides a visual representation of the connector pins and selections of the connector pins. The control unit receives inputs indicating the pin selections and controls the robotic positioner to sequentially move the heating device along three orthogonal longitudinal axes to a series of heating positions relative to the selected connector pins to provide heat for melting solder to connect wires to the wire receptacles.
