Abstract
The invention is a welding method for welding a cable to a terminal, the cable comprising multiple strands and an insulating sheath around the multiple strands, the method comprising the steps of removing the insulating sheath from an end section of the cable, pressing the multiple strands to the terminal with a pressing mechanism, and making at least one welding connection between the multiple strands and the terminal by applying at least one pulse of a laser onto the end section of the cable, and removing the pressing mechanism.
